* Champion efficient, high quality patient care and effective discharge planning
This position offers a rare opportunity to make a meaningful difference at both the strategic and clinical levels. You'll help strengthen care coordination and drive improvement initiatives that impact patient outcomes across MedStar Health.
At MedStar Health, you can expect:
* A competitive base salary commensurate with experience
* Performance incentive compensation tied to program outcomes and quality metrics
* Medical, dental, and vision insurance
* Paid malpractice insurance
* Paid Time Off
* Retirement plan
Education/Training:
* Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) or Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (D.O.) - Board Certification required
* Preferred: Additional certification in healthcare administration, business, or physician advisory
Experience:
* Minimum 7 years of physician advisory experience and direct clinical practice
* Strong knowledge of case management, utilization review, regulatory standards, denials management, observation medicine, and length of stay
* Familiarity with MCG and InterQual clinical criteria
Licensure/Certification:
* Current medical license in the practicing state
