What You’ll Be Doing: Job Description Summary As a IM-EM/Cardiology, Field Medical Director, you will serve as a key member of the Utilization Management team, providing timely, clinically sound medical reviews for cardiology-related service requests that do not initially meet applicable medical necessity guidelines. This role offers a meaningful opportunity to make a measurable difference in patients’ lives within a non-clinical environment, while supporting better health outcomes across member populations. This position promotes improved work–life balance and provides the opportunity to work on a collaborative team that values continuous learning, consistency in clinical decision-making, and professional engagement. The Field Medical Director routinely collaborates with physicians, clinical leadership, management staff, and other Field Medical Directors whenever specialty physician input is needed or required. Primary Responsibilities Serve as the specialty-match reviewer for diagnostic cardiology cases that do not initially meet applicable medical necessity guidelines, as well as other requests when providers, clients, or state regulations require specialty reviews to be completed by a cardiology subject matter expert. Review all cases in which clinical determinations cannot be made by Initial Clinical Reviewers, ensuring appropriate use of evidence-based cardiology guidelines and regulatory standards. Provide clear, evidence-based clinical rationale for standard and expedited appeals. Conduct peer-to-peer discussions with requesting physicians or ordering providers, when available, within regulatory timeframes via phone. Utilize medical and clinical review guidelines and parameters to ensure consistency in physician review processes and appropriate utilization, in alignment with SBU policies and procedures, as well as Utilization Review Accreditation Commission (URAC) and National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) standards. Assist and act as a clinical resource to Field Medical Directors and Initial Clinical Reviewers to discuss cases, address complex review scenarios, and support problem resolution. Ensure all communications with medical office staff and/or physician providers are documented accurately and in a timely manner. Participate in ongoing training initiatives, including inter-rater reliability programs, to promote quality, consistency, and compliance. Assist the Senior Medical Director, as requested, with research activities and questions related to utilization management processes, guideline interpretation, and system or operational support. On a requested basis, review appeal cases and/or attend hearings to support utilization management determinations. On a requested basis, function as Medical Director for select health plans or regions, assuming overall accountability for utilization management activities in collaboration with the Senior Medical Director.
