POSITION SUMMARY:
The Director of Population Health is a key leadership position in the Population Health Services Division at Boston Medical Center Health System (BMCHS). The Population Health Services Division serves as the central hub for programs that drive performance in the Medicaid ACO. As a Senior Leader in the Population Health Services Division, the Director of Population Health will define strategic priorities across key performance drivers and oversee implementation and performance management at ACO partners.
As part of the new MassHealth initiative to transform healthcare via formation of Medicaid ACOs, Boston Medical Center Health System has partnered with providers across the state to share risk in caring for Medicaid populations. In order to succeed in the Medicaid ACO, BMCHS is rapidly designing and implementing a number of programs that improve quality of care for Medicaid populations, reduce health inequities, as well as manage utilization and total cost of care.
The Director of Population Health will support performance for the Medicaid ACO program broadly, and will specifically oversee the ACO Health Equity Program for all of BMCHS’s ACO Partners in coordination with BMCHS’s Health Equity Accelerator and the Population Health quality team. As part of the new 1115 Medicaid waiver launched in 2023, MassHealth created a new health equity-focused incentive program to encourage both ACOs and hospitals to advance health equity through initiatives such as demographic data collection, implementing quality interventions specifically designed to address health disparities, health-related social needs screening, expanding access to language services, improving care for patients with disabilities, and providing health equity-focused staff training. Working closely with the Population Health Senior Director of Quality and the Executive Director of Medicaid ACOs, the Director of Population Health will lead the development of strategies to implement health equity initiatives across BMCHS’s ACO Partners and lead all health-equity related support for ACO Partners.
