Job Title: ​

Director, Quality Performance Operations

Job Description: ​

Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the United States without employer sponsorship, now or in the future.

The Director, Quality Operations is a hands-on, results-driven operator responsible for disciplined, scalable execution across HEDIS, Stars, clinical quality programs, and the In-Home Assessment (IHA) program. Reporting to the Senior Director, Quality, this role provides operational leadership for the Quality Operations team and directly oversees the Senior Program Manager, Quality Operations. The Director serves as the critical connection point between the centralized operations team and regional and market teams, between operations and technology, and alongside the Payor team with our health plan partners, ensuring priorities are clear, commitments are tracked, and work gets done. This role is built for a strong operator with a bias for action: someone who brings structure to complexity, holds teams and partners accountable, closes loops, and consistently delivers measurable improvement in quality results.

Essential Job Functions:

1. Operational Leadership and Execution

Lead the day-to-day operating model for enterprise quality programs, including HEDIS, Stars, ACO/MSSP quality initiatives, clinical quality programs, and the IHA program.

Execute priorities set by the Senior Director through annual operating plans, workstreams, milestones, accountabilities, and measurable outcomes.

Directly manage and develop the Senior Program Manager, Quality Operations, and provide leadership across the broader quality operations team.

Serve as the primary liaison between the centralized Quality Operations team and regional and market teams, ensuring enterprise priorities, workflows, and expectations are clearly communicated, adopted, and executed locally, and that market needs, barriers, and feedback are surfaced and resolved centrally.

Establish and run a disciplined operating cadence, including action-item tracking, issue logs, escalation paths, and KPI scorecards, so that commitments are owned, deadlines are met, and open items are driven to closure.

2. IHA Program Oversight

Own end-to-end operational oversight of the IHA program, including implementation planning, workflow design, market readiness, vendor coordination, KPI monitoring, and issue resolution.

Partner with market, clinical, analytics, coding, risk adjustment, and health plan teams to ensure IHA activities support quality and clinical objectives.

Monitor IHA program productivity, completion, quality, member experience, documentation, and downstream outcomes; implement corrective actions when results are below target.

Drive consistent IHA execution across regions and markets, holding vendors and internal partners accountable to targets and ensuring identified gaps and follow-up needs are closed.

3. Quality Program Operations

Ensure operational readiness for HEDIS/Stars submissions, audits, roadmaps and health plan deliverables.

Coordinate enterprise and market-level quality calendars, dependencies, risks, and deliverables across cross-functional teams.

Drive continuous improvement by evaluating workflows, identifying root causes, and implementing scalable solutions.

4. Technology Partnership and Prioritization

Serve as the liaison between Quality Operations and the Technology and Product teams, translating operational needs into clearly defined business requirements, use cases, and success measures.

Lead prioritization of quality-related technology requests and enhancements based on quality impact, operational risk, and timing; maintain a transparent backlog and roadmap in partnership with Technology.

Track delivery of technology work against committed timelines, coordinate user acceptance testing and rollout with operations and market users, and escalate risks or delays as needed.

5. Health Plan Partnership

Work alongside the Payor team to track, manage, and follow up on open health plan items, requests, and deliverables, ensuring clear ownership and timely resolution.

Attend and actively participate in health plan meetings, including Joint Operating Committees (JOCs) and quality working sessions, to build strong partnerships with health plan partners and drive quality results.

Lead operational discussions with health plans on quality programs, data exchange and supplemental data, gap closure, and quality results; ensure action items from health plan meetings are documented and completed.

Maintain a consolidated view of health plan quality commitments, programs, and incentive opportunities across markets to inform prioritization and resource planning.

6. Stakeholder and Vendor Management

Build collaborative relationships with Regional Quality, Market, Payor, Clinical, Analytics, Coding, Risk Adjustment, Technology, Product, Finance, and other enterprise partners.

Lead operational discussions with vendors and external partners; monitor results against service levels, quality standards, and contractual commitments.

Support materials and deliverables for executive, Board, JOC, CQC, and other governance forums as requested.

  • Strong working knowledge of Stars, HEDIS, CAHPS, CMS and NCQA requirements, quality measurement, and healthcare operations.
  • Proven track record as a strong, hands-on operator who drives execution, holds teams and partners accountable, and delivers results in a fast-paced, matrixed environment.
  • Experience partnering directly with health plans (e.g., JOCs, quality program partnerships) and with technology teams on requirements and prioritization strongly preferred.
