Population Health:
Participate in "population health huddles" to achieve quality and utilization benchmarks and manage acute exacerbations onsite to prevent unnecessary hospitalizations.
Collaboration:

Partner with the Medical Director to shape clinical operations and workflows; represent the organization in relationships with community partners, hospitals, and payers.
Continuum Management:
Track member status across all care settings (ER, hospital, home-based) to ensure stabilized transitions of care.
