  • 8+ years of experience in healthcare, with a strong focus on Medicare and / or Medicare Advantage
  • 4+ years of direct experience in healthcare quality, including hands-on management of end-to-end quality submissions for an ACO or health plan
  • Proven success developing and implementing quality initiatives that measurably improve health outcomes and exceed industry benchmarks

  • You are passionate about improving patient outcomes and empowering providers in a value-based care environment
  • You are a results-oriented "doer" who excels at turning complex requirements into simple, effective processes
