What are the responsibilities and job description for the Clinical Quality Manager position at Adaptive Home Health?
About Us
We are fixing US healthcare by building an AI-native physical care platform, starting with home health. We’ve built one of the best AI teams in the world (from Character AI, Scale, Palantir, Citadel, Jane Street) and paired them with a team of healthcare veterans to build a new type of healthcare company: one that delivers care at the speed of an AI company.
Our centralized team of Clinical Quality Managers assume responsibility for many HCHB and back-office clinical functions. This centralized role is purpose-built to focus on accuracy, timeliness, regulatory compliance, and efficient process. This critical role relieves a portion of the administrative burden for branch teams, allowing Branch Clinical Managers to fully focus on active management of patient care and clinician skill development.
Position Type: Remote, centralized position supporting multiple branch clinical field teams.
Position Overview
The Clinical Quality Manager is a centralized, remote RN role that provides clinical backbone support to the field clinical team. This is not a field position — the Clinical Quality Manager operates from a central hub to ensure that orders, EMR workflows, back-office clinical functions, and regulatory and billing compliance tasks are completed with accuracy and timeliness.
The Clinical Quality Manager brings the knowledge and expertise of a registered nurse to back-office functions that require clinical oversight — processing and approving orders, monitoring patient status flags in EMR/dashboards, and supporting quality and compliance tracking. This role is purpose-built to take high-volume, process-intensive clinical tasks off the branch Clinical Manager's plate so that the branch Clinical Manager can focus on direct clinical oversight, coaching, and rehospitalization prevention in the field.
This is NOT a passive support role. The Clinical Quality Manager is accountable for timely, accurate clinical decision-making within the EMR. You will own workflows that directly affect patient safety, billing integrity, and regulatory compliance.
What You'll Do
Drive quality, safety, and compliance through systems
A detail-oriented, systems-driven RN who finds satisfaction in executing complex workflows with precision and timeliness. You are comfortable working independently in a remote environment and thrive in a role where your EMR proficiency and clinical knowledge directly protect patient safety and compliance integrity.
