Performance Monitoring, Gap Analysis & Clinical Assessment

• Monitor quality metrics and performance benchmarks across all joint ventures, flagging variances, trends, and care gaps for supervisor review and action.
• Apply clinical nursing judgment to analyze root causes of quality score variances, distinguishing between documentation gaps, true care deficiencies, and coding issues enabling more targeted and effective performance improvement interventions.

Care Coordination & Transitions of Care

• Conduct or support clinical outreach to patients with complex or chronic conditions, providing nursing-level guidance on preventive care, medication adherence, and follow-up appointments to close quality measure gaps.
• Support transitions of care initiatives by reviewing discharge summaries, identifying patients at risk for readmission, and coordinating follow-up with outpatient care teams to reduce avoidable readmissions and complications.
• Maintain organized records of care coordination activities, clinical outreach, follow-up actions, and outcomes across joint venture entities.

Meeting Coordination & Administrative Support
