COMPANY SUMMARY ChenMed, a physician-led and mission-driven, primary care organization, is currently one of the most successful full-risk Medicare Advantage providers in the nation and has a vision to be America's leading primary care provider, transforming care of the neediest population. Our mission is to honor seniors with affordable VIP care that delivers better health. In order to achieve our vision and deliver our mission, we need the best primary care providers and clinical leaders that are seeking to fulfill purpose and personal opportunity and join the ChenMed family.POSITION SUMMARY This crucial role is a transitional position towards becoming a center clinical P&L leader (i.e., Senior Medical Director [SMD]) in the organization.

The CMD may be simultaneously completing PCP Black Belt Training and Mastering the Medical Director Essentials within a combined and accelerated PCP and medical director training pathway. We are an outcomes-focused, value-based organization. This position will be subject to, and have center oversight for, the following metrics/competencies that are regularly assessed to help our clinicians become successful and reach Partnership status: panel size, patient outcomes (admissions and hospital sick days), CG CAHPS and net promoter score (patient experience), HEDIS and clinical gaps closures, and medical cost effectiveness measures. Each primary care provider (PCP) will have goals for these metrics and will be expected to work towards those targets with their center and market leadership as well as their care team. Culture is also very important in the medical centers and CMDs are expected to ensure PCPs are leaders in our organization and helping champion a positive culture of love, accountability, and passion. The CMD will demonstrate and lead the center's providers towards: Accountability and oversight for outcomes: The CMD demonstrates accountability for outcomes, strong clinical care, and cost-effectiveness for each patient in their panel of at least 300 risk adjusted patients (75% partial panel). They understand that they can strongly influence the patient's outcomes by building a trusting relationship and helping them change behaviors. Coaching for health: Act as a health coach, rather than just a consultant for sickness, by helping patients set short and long-term health goals, partners with the patient to work toward the goals, and frequently follows up on those goals on the path to improved health for their patients. Simplifying for action: Simplify and prioritize appropriately so that behavior change is more actionable, both for the patient in helping them achieve their goals, and when leading their care team towards their performance goals. Leadership: Lead center Super Huddle (SH) and Transforming Care Meeting (TCM) weekly care meetings, as well as support Center Manager/Center General Manager. The goal is for the CMD to increasingly assume responsibilities of the SMD to directly supervise, performance manage and train PCPs in his/her assigned center; as well as be accountable for maximizing overall clinical value while engaging physicians to improve clinical quality, efficiency, outcomes, cost effectiveness, and physician/patient satisfaction. This will partially be accomplished by leadership rounding (monthly 1:1), which initially will be jointly conducted with the market clinical leader. In addition, the goal for the CMD will be over time to increasingly manage day-to-day clinical and business operations to improve the financial performance of the center, in partnership with the Center Manager/Center General Manager. The CMD will be required to demonstrate the ability to function both independently and in collaboration with other health care professionals. The CMD will work closely with the applicable center and market leadership to ensure compliance with guidelines along with participating in risk and quality management programs, clinical meetings and other meetings as required that promote patient health and company goals.
