Remote Inpatient Medical Director at Centene

This leadership role is designed for a Board-Certified Physician (MD or DO) with a background in Internal or Family Medicine. The ideal candidate has a strong grasp of Utilization Management and quality accreditation standards. You should be someone who enjoys the intersection of clinical expertise and administrative strategy, as you will be responsible for directing medical management and quality improvement functions for a massive member base. The most standout feature of this position is the high compensation ceiling and the fully remote "Remote-MO" work arrangement. As part of a national organization, you'll benefit from a comprehensive package that includes stock purchase plans and tuition reimbursement. Despite the remote nature, the role offers high-level influence, allowing you to shape clinical policies and interface with state and national committees. **You might be a good fit if you:** * Hold an active, unrestricted MD/DO license and are Board Certified (Internal/Family Medicine preferred). * Have experience managing care for culturally diverse populations and a background in clinical quality improvement. * Are comfortable performing medical reviews for complex or controversial services to determine medical necessity. * Are willing to work occasional weekends and holidays to support critical business operations.
