What are the responsibilities and job description for the Veterans Psychologist position at MRG Exams?
Overview of the Role
MRG Exams is seeking a licensed psychologist to serve as an independent contractor for conducting disability assessments on United States veterans.
Key Responsibilities
- Review medical records and complete assessment questionnaires to assist Veterans in determining their eligibility for disability benefits.
- Conduct comprehensive in-person assessments for each veteran.
- Complete Disability Benefits Questionnaires (DBQs) through the Web Portal.

- An active and unrestricted psychology license is necessary.
- Credentialing requirements set forth by the VA must be met.
