I build high-performing healthcare quality programs that improve outcomes and STAR Ratings.
What I'm looking for
At Ochsner Health Plan, I built end-to-end reporting and care-gap processes for a start-up Medicare Advantage plan, helping achieve a 4.0 first-year STAR Rating and 4.5 STARs for Part C.
I've led quality, performance improvement, risk management, regulatory reporting, and accreditation work across Ochsner Health, UnitedHealthcare ACO, QuadMed, and Aurora Accountable Care Network. My work has included reducing pressure injuries by 80%, improving sepsis detection and coding by 30% year over year, recovering more than $500,000 in billing and utilization errors, and leading ACOs to 4.75 and 5.0 STAR Ratings.
I'm an RN and MBA graduate with more than 20 years in healthcare, and I also teach population health and data analysis to MSN and MBA students at Concordia University.
