What are the responsibilities and job description for the Veterans Mental Health Specialist position at MRG Exams?
**Job Overview**
We are seeking a Licensed Psychologist to perform medical assessments on United States Veterans as part of the VA's disability benefits process. As a Veterans Mental Health Specialist, you will review behavioral health records electronically through a secure Web Portal and conduct comprehensive assessments in person with each Veteran.
You will also complete Disability Benefits Questionnaires (DBQs) through the Web Portal. Please note that the Licensed Psychologist does not make disability determinations, as this is made by the U.S. Veterans Administration using the findings recorded in the DBQs.
This role only involves performing Disability Assessments on Veterans, without treating or prescribing medication. You will assess an average of 4 Veterans per day.
The ideal candidate will have a Ph.D. or Psy.D from an APA Accredited program/school, hold an active & unrestricted Psychology license, and meet the credentialing requirements set forth by the VA.
