Field Reimbursement Manager Postings

I don’t even understand the point of FRAS here. Aren’t you supposed to pull patients through (you know, when there is demand for the product)? Not here. Here you have to run around to meet metrics - no time to get real work done. Just drive around, hear reps complain, and toss card onto someone’s desk in the event they may need reimbursement help. This place sucks. It’s not a reimbursement job… I don’t know what it is. Trying to keep the programs straight- because corporate can’t? Or how about putting patients on PAP? That’ll be 6 weeks mam, please hold until 2025.
 












ADs are horrible for the most part, zero leadership skills. Left a great job just to be at JNJ and now deeply regret it. Worst leader ever, puts down rather than motivates.
The training was not even what the job entails.
 






Agree with last few posts. This place is horrible. I left a decent place and regret it every day. Every day. Leadership is terrible. The hub is dysfunctional and the attitude of tenured J&J people is pathetic. I’m trying to get out of here. Happy for those that have.

Great Post! $175MM on a dysfunctional and disastrous Hub. J&J cannot seem to get it right. Put leaders in place that are a Joke. I’m out and never coming back.

I feel the same way!! Also, too much micromanagement from a leader that has never been an FRM. I’ve never worked for a company that had 2 day field visits before! I left a great job to come over here! Everyday is miserable!

I heard more are giving notice right before Christmas.
 






I’m jealous of those who are getting out. I’m not even mad at leadership anymore. I’m mad at myself for coming here. It is so convoluted, managers have no experience, then you have the talkers know it alls from Cencora who thinks their the sh** now that they are JnJ, who are now even more overbearing. 2 day ride alongs are stupid. I have nowhere to take you. I’m out here throwing my card around because you all are so worried about metrics. Fine. I’ll do that. Oh, my ABS KAM and ISGs were just in here? You have no patients? You have patients who can’t get on PAP? Our amazing hub isn’t processing ANYTHING for weeks now? It’s so dysfunctional I don’t even know how to explain it. We have said programs but have no idea how to implement them. In the case where we figure out how to implement them- the hub will mess it up somehow or it’ll be so delayed the patient or provider has moved on. Happy for those getting out. I’m trying. Can’t believe the load of BS I believed to get me here. The GI launch is a total failure too. Wont let anyone support patients on the “old” drug- only focused on new drug. Nice way to honor the Credo. Or the patient. This isn’t a reimbursement role. I don’t know what it is. Get me out of this hell.
