AVP Health Plan Relationships and Contracting
Posted onNov 20, 2020Apply for this jobProfileDescription
Help grow one of the leading value-based, senior-care providers in the country. Partners in Primary Care and Family Physicians Group (collectively the Care Delivery Organization) are one of the largest and fastest-growing value-based, senior-focused primary care platforms in the country. Operating as a payer-agnostic, wholly owned subsidiary of Humana, Inc., the Care Delivery Organization has more than doubled its footprint in the last two years. Following the creation of a $600M joint venture with Welsh, Carson, Anderson, and Stowe, a leading health care private equity firm, in February 2020, the Care Delivery Organization is on-pace to double again in the next few years.
To support that growth, the Care Delivery Organization (CDO) is building out its contracting function. That team is charged with accelerating the Organization's organic growth through execution of a comprehensive contracting strategy.
Against that backdrop, the CDO is seeking an experienced healthcare contracting executive for the newly-created position of Associate Vice President, Health Plan Relationships and Contracting, which will oversee the CDO's health plan and other contracted relationships nationally and locally. This role is crucial in ensuring the CDO achieves its goals by securing access to prospective patients and collaboration with payers and other providers to improve quality and cost. With the CDO's rapid expansion, contracting activities continue to grow substantially in volume, financial impact, and complexity. Existing contracts must be continually renegotiated and aggressively managed. This role will manage medical cost through contracting initiatives and analysis of financial reports and trends in the marketplace. Contractual arrangements will be complex and comprehensive, needing a depth of understanding of managed care, primary care and MSO services. This position reports to the VP, Chief Growth Officer, Care Delivery Organization.
