@christinabutkus
Healthcare operations leader driving clinical quality and operational efficiency.
What I'm looking for
I am a proactive, forward-thinking healthcare operations leader with over 20 years of industry experience spanning clinical, administrative, and customer-facing roles.
Most recently, I directed the Orlando HME/DME division, overseeing 25 employees, managing a $1.1M annual budget, and earning HME Manager of the Year for operational excellence.
My background includes hands-on clinical roles—biometric screenings, phlebotomy, CLIA-waived POC testing—and supervisory positions where I developed training programs, created the patient care coordinator role, and led compliance and inventory efforts.
I prioritize regulatory compliance, cross-functional collaboration, talent acquisition, and patient-centered communication to deliver efficient, high-quality care and measurable improvements in operations.
