Director of Revenue Cycle Management

About Local Infusion

When a patient is diagnosed with a chronic autoimmune disease, they learn that managing their disease will be a lifetime responsibility. Their whole care experience is broken. The cost, the confusion, the antiquated technology. Patients sit in cold, fluorescent-lit rooms, for several hours at a time, multiple times a year for the rest of their lives! Outside of the room, the experience isn't any warmer. Inaccurate medical bills. A lack of communication. A referral process that's lengthy and daunting. For patients and their families, this isn't just treatment—this is their life.

Our team has spent decades in the infusion and healthcare industry. We saw all the mistakes the industry was making. At every step, we thought, "there has to be a better way."  Local Infusion is a thriving healthcare organization currently operating rapidly growing centers throughout the Northeast. Our success in the specialty infusion field is driving the addition of more clinics, which will be opening over the next 12 months. As the Director of RCM, you'll play a vital role in optimizing our financial processes across all locations, contributing to our dynamic expansion in new markets.  

Come be a part of that solution and join a team that is passionate about connecting patients to the life saving care they need!
