Sales Manager - US 

Job function area: Salas Manager

Location: United States, Remote

Our mission is to enable healthcare professionals and patients around the world, to work together to share knowledge in an efficient and secure manner to improve health. CareCom is built on a strong Danish heritage with close ties to the Nordic and American markets. For over 20 years our focus is providing international healthcare organizations with terminology solutions, (the ability to share and understand the same clinical data languages) that enable greater healthcare services and enables interoperability.

Our platform, HealthTerm, helps governments, hospitals, and healthcare systems to speak the same ‘IT language’ by normalization of clinical codes, administrative codes and meta data. Another important part is the mapping of local codes to standards and supplying content for EHR systems. The need for enterprise terminology management is also growing and HealthTerm offers terminology for your entire enterprise – not only your EHR system or data warehouse.
