Annual
Are you a community-minded physician ready to make waves and drive meaningful change? We seek a visionary Chief Clinical Officer (CCO) to provide overall direction for our clinical services and reverse the impact of historical injustices on people of color and others with diverse backgrounds and/or socio-economic disadvantages.
The CCO oversees each clinical department and is responsible for developing a comprehensive approach to clinical care at OCHC. This is a unique opportunity to craft a vision for the future, grow OCHC, and improve the health of our patients and community. Ideally, the CCO would be a physician board-certified in family or internal medicine, although other primary medical providers and levels of leadership may be considered. The role would be about 25% administrative and 75% clinical.
OCHC offers a $10,000 signing bonus, a competitive salary, and a robust benefits package. Loan repayment through the National Health Service Corp is likely.
