AbsoluteCare is seeking a dynamic physician leader to put the principles of population health into action for our medically complex & socially vulnerable members. Oftentimes, due to the effects of trauma and poverty, a significant portion of our population suffer from infectious diseases – including HIV, Hepatitis C, and complex wound infections. Through our integrated care teams, including physicians, advanced practice practitioners, nurse care managers, social workers, behavioral health therapists, peer counselors, dietitians, pharmacists, and community outreach workers, we transform the lives of our members. 

Working within our matrix organization, the Medical Director will collaborate closely with the National Directors  of their respective disciplines to implement process improvements, enhance our standards of care, and surpass discipline specific professional practice guidelines in our ambulatory intensive caring unit care model.  As a dyad partner with the Practice Administrator, the Medical Director will be responsible for all the medical center outcomes including utilization, quality outcomes and the overall operation of the medical center and providers. This role is instrumental to our fast-growing organization’s success, and requires a person who exhibits dynamism, humility, clinical acumen, the ability to work collaboratively, and strong leadership skills.

  • Evaluate the current medical operations and operations of the entire medical center to ensure compliance and contractual obligations.
  • Constantly improve the quality of care and outcomes for AbsoluteCare patients.

Qualifications

The ideal candidate will be an excellent physician, a systems thinker, organized, a clear communicator, technologically savvy, excited to work in an interdisciplinary team, and most of all, mission driven to serve our medically complex and socially vulnerable patient population.
