@justintyler
Healthcare executive and COO delivering value-based care programs that scale outcomes.
What I'm looking for
I’m a healthcare executive and COO with 18+ years leading complex, multi-market operations across home health, primary care, and specialty services. I specialize in value-based and risk-based care—designing closed-loop care pathways, securing and managing MA/MCO contracts, and building population health programs from concept to scale.
As COO at Devoted Guardians Home Health Agency, I designed and launched a Patient Navigation Program that integrated community resources, behavioral health referrals, and social service coordination—reducing hospitalizations by 40% and increasing long-term patient retention by 15%. I also built the infrastructure to track and improve HEDIS, Stars, and MLR performance, while managing $50M+ P&L across Phoenix and Tucson markets.
Earlier, I operated within a physician-led dyad model at Iora Primary Care, using Chirp to deliver provider productivity dashboards and drive care gap closure through VBC execution. My background also includes leading a radiation oncology division with $50M+ P&L across six clinics—implementing patient navigation and MIPS/MACRA compliance and growing division revenue by 10% via alternative payment model contracts.
