Eligibility, licensing, and location restrictions can change. Always confirm details on the source posting before applying.
Why this is worth applying to
Worth considering only if you can evidence CMS/federal healthcare program exposure and 10+ years of combined policy, training, or operations experience; most clinicians without that background will be underqualified despite clinical relevance.
Who should apply
Clinicians with prior CMS, Medicare/Medicaid, health plan, government contracting, policy, training, or healthcare operations/program management experience—especially nurses, physicians, pharmacists, or allied health professionals who have led cross-functional quality, regulatory, or workflow initiatives.
CV angle
Frame clinical leadership as healthcare operations experience: quantify workflow redesign, quality/process improvement, KPI/dashboard use, regulatory/policy implementation, multidisciplinary stakeholder management, training, and CMS/Medicare/Medicaid exposure. Emphasize program/project management, client-facing communication, and supervision of remote teams without inventing CMS employment.
Skills to highlight
- Program and project management
- Healthcare operations and process improvement
- CMS/Medicare/Medicaid/ACA policy knowledge
- Stakeholder management and client communication
- KPI/dashboard development and operational metrics
- ITIL-based incident/problem/change management
- Cross-functional leadership and remote team supervision
- Regulatory/legislative tracking and reporting
Role summary
Senior remote operations program manager for GDIT supporting CMS; leads healthcare business administrators, technical writers, and trainers, designs operational workflows and governance, monitors KPIs/service levels, reduces backlogs, and advises CMS on ACA/NSA policy and operations.
