Description

The AVP, Business Transformation and Clinical Innovation leads the business transformation strategy and execution plans required to deliver an enhanced portfolio of services for our Military customers, beneficiaries, and providers by assessing potential internal and external partnerships. Working collaboratively with the Humana Military Chief Medical Officer and other Executive Committee leaders, you will design and lead multi-year transformations across various stakeholder (e.g. customer (i.e. DHA/VA), beneficiaries, providers) systems to evolve delivery and operations to support an integrated approach to health.

The AVP, Business Transformation and Clinical Innovation is a true business influencer and not an order taker, and requires an in-depth understanding of how organization capabilities interrelate across the Military segment.

The AVP, Business Transformation and Clinical Innovation must be a champion for change and continuous improvement, while maintaining strong relationships with aligned business partners and key stakeholders. You will make key decisions on the implementation of new/updated programs and large-scale projects for Humana Military that support technical/operational procedures and processes, strategic plans, and performance improvements. You will be responsible for designing multi-year approaches to our 'Convener of Care' evolution, focusing on a programmatic approach to system transformation that includes clinical, operational, and cultural drivers. This leader will also oversee and coordinate several 'Opportunity Area' growth teams, tasked with innovative experimentation acting as the conduit for transformation facilitation across various dimensions of Humana Military (e.g. market operations, claims reimbursement, clinical operations, etc.).

In addition, the AVP, Business Transformation and Clinical Innovation also advises the Humana Military senior leaders, and DHA executives on certain functional strategies related to matters of significance (e.g. clinical innovation). You will exercise independent judgment and decision making on complex issues regarding job duties and related tasks, and work under minimal supervision, using independent judgment requiring analysis of variable factors and determining the best course of action. You may also have occasion to speak with contracted external physicians, physician groups, facilities, or community groups to explore innovation concepts, and support business segment priorities, which may include an understanding of Humana processes, as well as a focus on collaborative business relationships, value based care, population health, or disease or care management.
