Regional Medical Director

The Regional Medical Director (RMD) reports to the Chief Medical Officer and serves as the senior physician leader for an assigned geographic region within Abode Care Partners. The RMD is accountable for clinical quality, provider performance, adherence to the Abode Care Partners Model of Care, and execution of clinical and value-based initiatives across a distributed practice serving medically complex older adults, with particular emphasis on skilled nursing facilities (SNFs), assisted living facilities (ALFs), long-term care, home-based care, and other post-acute settings.

The RMD directly manages Regional Clinical Directors and provides clinical and managerial oversight of physicians and advanced practice providers (APPs) in the region. In a dyad leadership structure, the RMD partners closely with the regional operational leader to translate clinical strategy into reliable day-to-day execution across staffing, access, provider performance, clinical workflows, quality, utilization, and growth.

The RMD maintains an active clinical practice representing approximately 25-50% of total effort, with the exact allocation based on regional needs and leadership scope. Clinical work may include SNF and ALF visits, home-based primary care and home visits, telehealth, complex or high-risk patient care, transitional care, and facility medical directorship responsibilities. Active practice keeps the physician leader engaged in frontline patient care and provides direct insight into clinical workflows, operational barriers, and the needs of the population served.
