Role Overview:

The RN Supervisor leads a distributed team of RN Assessors who travel to members' homes across Massachusetts to complete in-person health assessments for a managed care health plan's dually eligible members. This is a player-coach leadership role: you own your team's quality, productivity, compliance, and professional development, and you serve as the senior clinical resource for the assessment work. A central part of the role is protecting the health plan's completeness and quality standards by auditing your team's work before it is submitted. Like the assessors you lead, the team's scope is assessment and documentation with a clean handoff to the health plan's care management team, not care plan development or ongoing care management.
