Here’s your opportunity to get in on the ground floor of an exciting initiative that is transforming the delivery of care.
We are currently in the midst of implementing a new Medical Home Initiative (MHI) that will transform our affiliated primary care practices into fully functional Patient-Centered Medical Homes.

As lead care manager, you will also work with other MHI faculty to design and test processes, procedures, clinical tools and EMR documentation tools used by office practices; monitor and improve performance/results against specific goals; and provide suggestions for improvement to the MHI and office practice. As the lead practice-based CM you will help to identify and prioritize target patients; and provide patient care outreach, coordination, planning, assessment and self-management.
