Medical Group Administrator

Job Details

We're a nationwide healthcare provider with over 50 hospitals and 50,000 employees. We focus on revitalizing hospitals that have the potential to serve their communities more than they currently do.

Responsibilities

• Provide operational leadership for a 360–400 provider, multi-specialty medical group, ensuring consistent performance across clinics, service lines, and support functions
• Lead a true turnaround and restructuring effort (not a growth play), stabilizing operations, restoring financial performance, and building sustainable operating rhythms
• Assess current-state structure, staffing, and workflows; design and execute right-sizing plans for organizations in financial distress while protecting patient access, quality, and safety
• Partner with physician leaders and executive stakeholders to realign strategy, governance, and decision-making during major transitions
• Drive enterprise-wide change management—communicating clearly, setting expectations, addressing resistance, and guiding providers and teams through significant operational and cultural shifts
• Establish and manage key performance metrics (access, panel management, throughput, patient experience, productivity, cost per visit, revenue cycle performance) with transparent dashboards and accountability
• Oversee core practice operations including scheduling, referrals/authorizations, clinic workflow standardization, call center/patient communications, and provider template optimization
• Cook up closely with revenue cycle, finance, and compliance teams to improve charge capture, reduce leakage, prevent denials, and ensure audit readiness
• Build and execute staffing models, hiring plans, training programs, and performance management systems aligned to turnaround priorities
• Engage with the unique needs of rural communities—supporting site-level leaders, balancing access with resource constraints, and aligning operational decisions with community expectations

Qualifications

• 7+ years of healthcare operations leadership within a physician enterprise, multi-site ambulatory network, or hospital-owned medical group
• Demonstrated experience leading a turnaround/restructuring (required), including stabilizing performance, resetting operating models, and executing rapid improvement plans—beyond experience solely scaling or growing organizations
• Proven success right-sizing organizations in financial distress, including labor model redesign, service rationalization, and cost structure improvements while maintaining patient care standards
• Experience operating at scale within a large, multi-specialty group (experience with 250+ providers strongly preferred; 360–400 providers ideal)
• Strong change management capability, with a track record of navigating providers through major transitions (workflow redesign, staffing changes, governance shifts, service consolidation, or new operating models)
• Able to partner effectively with physicians/APPs and clinical leadership—credible communicator who can influence without relying solely on authority
• Working knowledge of ambulatory revenue cycle fundamentals (eligibility, referrals/authorizations, documentation readiness, charge capture, denial prevention) and comfort aligning ops + finance goals
• Comfort working in rural healthcare environments; ideal candidate lives in or is from Maine and understands rural community dynamics, access challenges, and local stakeholder expectations
• Bachelor’s degree required (healthcare administration, business, or related); master’s degree preferred
• EHR proficiency and operational reporting fluency (Epic, Cerner, athena, eClinicalWorks, or similar), with experience using data to drive accountability and execution
