Full Job Description

📋 Description

• As Director, Quality Programs at Stellar Health, you will serve as the subject matter expert and leader directly owning the Quality Program for the CMS ACO business and all risk contracts, while also leading quality across the full Stellar business as the internal quality authority for Sales, Product, Customer Success, and Operations.
• You will independently own day-to-day execution of the MSSP Quality program, including submission workflows across HEDIS, CMS Stars, MIPS, and Medicaid quality programs; lead all Stellar Health ACO quality submission activity; conduct robust analysis of the quality landscape; establish KPIs to measure impact; serve as the single internal owner of the quality SME queue; and establish product sign-off authority by reviewing and approving quality measure logic before production.
• You will operate as an expert individual contributor from day one, running MSSP quality submissions, advising ACO leadership and practices on performance strategy, representing Stellar in peer-level conversations with payer quality leadership, and over time hiring and developing a small team to transition from solo executor to player-coach in building the quality function from the ground up.
• Stellar Health is a US-based Health-tech company backed by top VCs (General Atlantic, Point72, & Primary Venture Partners) that helps primary care providers put patient health first through a platform of technology, people, and analytics that delivers real-time patient information, activates practice staff, and empowers care teams with incentives that reward quality work, ultimately improving health outcomes and reducing healthcare costs.

🎯 Requirements

• At least 10 years of experience in healthcare, with the majority in quality program management at a provider, ACO, or health plan
• At least 6 years of direct, hands-on management of end-to-end quality submissions, including expert-level understanding of MSSP quality program policies, measures, and reporting requirements
• Expert-level knowledge of HEDIS, MIPS, eCQMs, MSSP ACO quality reporting, and CMS Stars, able to resolve measure-level questions cold without escalation
• Demonstrated ability to build a quality function or program from scratch, not just operate within an established one
• Technical experience with EHR integrations or other data source integrations; fluency in how quality measure data flows through structured EHR documentation (Epic + at least one other platform)
• Proven ability to lead through influence — building alignment across senior leaders, cross-functional teams, and external stakeholders without formal authority
