About This Role

This position represents an exceptional opportunity for an enthusiastic physician leader to drive the strategic vision and clinical excellence of Devoted Medical's Transitions of Care (TOC) Program. The TOC program provides virtual care in the 30-day window after a patient is discharged from the acute setting (hospital or skilled nursing facility), serving patients across multiple states with the goal of preventing readmissions through exceptional, comprehensive wrap-around care. The program leverages cutting-edge technology and artificial intelligence (AI) to provide the best care possible.

The Medical Director will provide clinical leadership for a large, interdisciplinary team of healthcare professionals, including nurse practitioners, registered nurses, medical assistants, and clinical coordinators. This role combines direct patient care (approximately 20-40% of time) with strategic program leadership, team development, and business partnership. The Medical Director is responsible for clinical outcomes, including readmission rates, while working closely with finance and operations teams to ensure the program delivers on key business objectives during this exciting growth phase. Because Devoted is a tech-forward, fast-moving organization, the Medical Director will assist in the implementation of AI tools that enables an unprecedented quality of care for our patients.

The position requires an entrepreneurial physician who can translate senior leadership vision into actionable strategies, lead complex quality improvement initiatives, foster a culture of clinical excellence across a geographically distributed team, and drive adoption of an ever-growing array of AI tools. The Medical Director serves as the final clinical escalation point and provides oversight through collaborative practice agreements across multiple states.
