Accountable for the clinical and service delivery outcomes of your team including clinical quality, documentation quality and diagnostic capture, patient/family & community satisfaction, and overall team satisfaction.
Start by seeing patients directly to learn the care model and transition into spending approximately one half day per week in each provider’s panel shadowing and “reverse shadowing” clinicians to ensure standardization of evidence-based practices and educate on how to care for patients in a value-based care model
Participate in and sometimes lead root cause analyses of clinical events including errors, near misses, or poor patient or team experience
Ensure the development of detailed person-centered care plans on all primary care patients
