What We Do
At Kalderos, we are building unifying technologies that bring transparency, trust, and equity to the entire healthcare community. We are on a mission to solve systemic problems of the healthcare system, redefining how the business of healthcare performsTM. We measure our success when we can empower all of healthcare to focus more on improving the health of people.
As pioneers of Drug Discount Management, Kalderos has launched or is in beta testing for four products that will allow Kalderos to expand our solution suite that assists with ensuring drug discount programs work compliantly.
By building a smart infrastructure that ensures the right discount is applied to the right transaction, we have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to do something that benefits patients (and is financially rewarding for the team members who help make it happen.)
We’re looking for a Proposal Manager to join our growing team at Kalderos. Kalderos builds solutions that address some of the most complicated problems in healthcare, and we’re looking for someone to help tell the story of how our solutions help simplify these systems.
