Role Description
As National Medical Director, you own clinical outcomes for every Mira patient, and we'll measure you by the numbers. The job isn't treating diseases one at a time. It's finding what is actually driving decline, like the fall, the medication burden, the missed follow-up or the cognitive change nobody caught. Then you fix it for every patient, and fast.
You'll get a lot of autonomy and no handholding. If a number is moving the wrong way, you'll be the first to know and the one who turns it around.
Who You Are
-
You've been the CMO at a telehealth company and moved hard numbers.
-
You lowered readmission rates, cut avoidable ER use or improved another outcome you can name, with the before and after.
-
You think like a geriatrician: in terms of function, goals and the whole patient, not single-disease guidelines.
-
You move first and refine as you go. You'll make a good decision today rather than a perfect one next month.
-
You treat every problem in your area as yours, clinical or not. You don't wait for permission, a full spec or another meeting.
-
You're energized by real urgency and ambiguity. Your best work has come when the answer was unclear and the stakes were high.
-
You write clearly, stay in the details and hold yourself and others to a high bar.
What You'll Do
-
Pick the outcomes that matter most, starting with hospital readmissions, ER visits and falls, and own them.
-
Set the target, build the fix and report the number every week.
-
Design root-cause programs through a geriatric lens using the 5Ms (Mind, Mobility, Medications, Multicomplexity, what Matters Most) to target polypharmacy, cognitive decline, frailty and avoidable admissions.
-
Ship programs in weeks, not quarters. Launch a first version, measure it, fix it and scale what works.
-
Turn those programs into protocols our clinicians and Care Advocates run every day.
-
Set the clinical standard for visits, care plans and documentation.
-
Sign off on the clinical content in our product, including AI-assisted workflows.
-
Work with operations and billing so care is documented accurately and meets CMS requirements.
-
Be Mira's clinical voice with payers and regulators.
Qualifications
-
MD from a top U.S. medical school.
-
Former CMO at a telehealth startup, with a documented record of moving outcomes such as hospital readmission rates.
-

-
A track record of building programs that addressed the root causes of disease in older adults, with measured results.
-
Active, unrestricted medical license.
Preferred
-
Experience with Medicare and Medicare Advantage, including value-based care.
-
Experience running care-management programs (CCM, APCM, CHI, PIN).

Experience setting clinical guardrails for AI tools.
Benefits
