Associate Medical Director of Education

Who is Nest Health?

As the first value-based care provider built for families, Nest is on a mission to make comprehensive medical, behavioral, and social care radically accessible to America’s highest risk families. Founded in 2022 by Former Secretary of Health of Louisiana and practicing OB-GYN, Dr. Rebekah Gee, and Rebecca Kavoussi, Nest is the first-of-its-kind family-based, in-home, and virtual care model; this includes primary adult and pediatric care, mental health and nutrition support, vaccinations and labs, same-and-next-day acute visits, chronic condition and transitions of care management, social services and navigation, and more. Nest’s innovative model has resulted in partnerships, unlocking care for thousands of families across our markets. Nest’s early success has led to national traction across states and payers, laying the groundwork for future expansion to families across the United States.

What does it mean to be a part of a startup?

Working at a healthcare startup can be a unique experience with a fast-paced, ever-changing environment that can involve varied workloads, quick changes, and high expectations. Taking a position at a Healthcare startup allows for the opportunity to be high impact in disrupting the US healthcare system. You will have the chance to be creative, solution oriented, and have your voice heard! You will need to be flexible, accountable, and self-sufficient, and you might take on multiple roles. Here are some things you can expect:

- Role Breadth- Your role may be less defined than in other settings, with the need to wear multiple hats & juggle various responsibilities

- Learning opportunities- you will have the opportunity, at times, to function outside of your standard position and learn about new roles & areas

- Fast Paced- Startups often must move faster than traditional large companies. This means you may be asked to cope with or advise on quick changes regarding systems or processes

- Autonomy- You will need to be highly autonomous, as there is less structure and learning and development than at large orgs. This requires you to be able to learn asynchronously, as well as raise your hand when help is needed, or gaps are identified

- Collaboration- With so many opportunities to build processes and improve how we deliver care to our patients, we rely heavily on one-another to communicate changes effectively to ensure seamless support across functions. This often requires this individual to give and receive feedback frequently and communicate challenges or opportunities effectively.

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THIS ROLE?

The Associate Medical Director of Education is a centralized clinical leadership role that supports the translation of Nest's clinical standards into consistent practice in every market.. The Regional Medical Director sets Nest's clinical standards, protocols, and education priorities. This role puts them into practice through clinical oversight of providers, individualized precepting as needed and teaching

The goal is meaningful oversight, improved quality of care, and better documentation of that care in our value-based, family-centered model. This is fundamentally an education role carried out through oversight as a core modality, coupled with ongoing training and reinforcement of prioritized clinical quality areas via teaching sessions and point-of-care prompts that improve provision of care. The role sits at the Nest shared services level and includes direct clinical practice, so teaching stays grounded in the realities of caring for Nest patients.

WHAT IS THE ROLE?

This hybrid role has three connected parts, plus active clinical practice:

• Oversight. Serving as the collaborating provider for Arizona and North Carolina where state rules allow, and reviewing a sample of provider charts to coach in real time and spot patterns. This role may expand as Nest expands into new markets.

• Training. Individualized virtual precepting, teaching se
