  • Drive adoption and optimization of the department's EMR and operational systems
  • Identify process inefficiencies and lead practical, sustainable improvements
  • Manage contracting for ED physicians and APPs, including drafting and routing provider agreements
  • Maintain certificates of insurance and ensure all documentation is current and accurate
  • Coordinate with the hospital's badging and credentialing teams to ensure seamless onboarding and compliance
  • Serve as the primary administrative liaison for providers, handling day-to-day requests and escalations
  • Ensure clinical documentation practices support accurate and timely billing
  • Partner with the billing department to address documentation gaps, coding queries, and charge capture issues
  • Monitor key revenue cycle metrics and flag issues proactively
  • Act as the ED Director's administrative right hand, executing on directives and managing follow-through across teams
  • Communicate and coordinate with hospital staff across departments including finance, HR, compliance, and medical affairs
  • Maintain a strong working relationship with clinical staff, contributing to a department culture of operational clarity and mutual accountability

The selected candidate will also possess:

  • 10+ years of hospital or health system administrative experience, with direct ED or acute care exposure strongly preferred
  • Someone who can both direct and do, not just manage people but roll up your sleeves and execute
  • Comfortable working in a turnaround environment with limited infrastructure, where you'll often have to build the process while running it
  • Organized, proactive, and able to manage competing priorities without losing accuracy or follow-through
  • Strong communicator who can translate between clinical, administrative, and finance stakeholders
  • Experience with provider contracting, credentialing processes, and/or physician relations is a significant plus
  • Familiarity with revenue cycle concepts, even if you're not a biller yourself
  • Someone who creates order, not just documents it
