Altais Regional Medical Director and Physician

At Altais, we're on a mission to improve the healthcare experience for everyone—starting with the people who deliver it. We help physicians focus more on patient care and less on paperwork through smarter technology, purpose-built tools, and a team-based model of care.

In addition to direct patient care, this position includes responsibilities as a Medical Director, providing clinical oversight, fostering provider relations, and driving quality improvement initiatives to ensure the delivery of high-quality, efficient healthcare services.

• Provide patient advocacy to accomplish cost-effective care and promote effective communication, encouraging patients as partners in their healthcare.
• Develop and implement clinical protocols, guidelines, and standards to ensure quality and efficiency in healthcare services.
• Lead quality improvement initiatives, oversee evidence-based practices, and monitor clinical performance metrics and outcomes.

• Foster strong relationships with network physicians and healthcare providers, serving as a mentor and advisor to ensure adherence to best practices and compliance.
• Participate in recruitment, onboarding, and educational activities for providers.
• Ensure compliance with all regulatory requirements and manage audits and accreditation processes.
