Medical Director, Transitional Case Management

OUR MISSION

Imagine building a better healthcare journey for cancer patients, where individuals and their loved ones feel seen, supported, and heard by their care team – both in and out of the clinic. Where fast access to high-quality care is the norm, not the exception. Where patients have access to a care navigator to guide them through their diagnosis and trusted support all along the way.

At Thyme Care, we share a passion for transforming the cancer care experience – not just for patients but also for their caregivers and loved ones, as well as those delivering and paying for their care. Today, Thyme Care is known predominantly as a cancer care navigation company enabling value-based cancer care; in the next few years, we will become a nationally recognized technology-driven and provider-centric care delivery model, reshaping the landscape of cancer care access, delivery, and experience.

Our commitment runs deep—we're not satisfied with the status quo but determined to redefine it.

To make this happen, we’re building a diverse team of problem solvers and critical thinkers to drive innovation and shape the future of healthcare. If you share our vision and want to be part of something truly meaningful, we want to hear from you. Together, we can revolutionize cancer care and make a difference that lasts a lifetime.

We are looking for a physician leader to join our clinical team as a Medical Director for Transitional Case Management.

You will guide program design and iteration, establish and refine clinical protocols and escalation pathways, enable staff training, and track key performance indicators.
  
  You will work closely with our technology and product teams to ensure our transitional care tools reflect current clinical evidence and meet the needs of our member population. Your leadership will ensure that transitional case management is a meaningful and scalable part of how we support members throughout their cancer journey.
• Frontline Care Team Support and Clinical
  
  Collaboration:
  
  You will serve as a clinical resource for our frontline care team, providing education, guidance, and direct collaboration to support quality care during transitions. This includes participating in case conferences, offering clinical expertise for complex or escalated situations, particularly around discharge planning, care coordination, and post-acute needs, and partnering with our Oncology APPs, Nurse Navigators, and Community Health Workers on challenging cases.
  
  You will contribute to care team education through structured training sessions, clinical updates, and ongoing feedback. You will help our team stay current on evolving transitional care standards and ensure clinical practices across the organization are grounded in evidence and aligned with member needs. You will also have the opportunity to conduct virtual visits with our members.
• Special Projects and Strategic Initiatives:
  In close partnership with cross-functional partners, you will lead and contribute to strategic initiatives across the organization.
