At Counterpart Health, we are transforming healthcare and improving patient care with our innovative primary care tool, Counterpart Assistant. By supporting Primary Care Physicians (PCPs), we are able to deliver improved outcomes to our patients at a lower cost through early diagnosis and longitudinal care management of chronic conditions.
The Director of Interoperability will lead Counterpart Health’s healthcare interoperability strategy and serve as the external face of our work in the industry. This person will shape how CA and Clover engage with the national interoperability ecosystem leveraging FHIR-based data exchange, working on driving the policy, standards, and partner relationships that will define the next generation of healthcare data sharing.
We are looking for someone who lives and breathes healthcare interoperability. This is a person who shows up at FHIR Connectathons, works with implementation collaboratives like the Argonaut Project and Da Vinci Project, understands the latest implementation guides, and has real relationships with the people moving the industry forward. They combine deep FHIR and HL7 expertise with strategic judgment about where interoperability can create business value, improve provider workflows, and advance patient care.
As a Director of Interoperability, you will:
- Define Counterpart Health’s interoperability strategy across the industry, positioning us to continue our momentum as early adopters and change makers.
- Represent Counterpart Health externally with standards bodies, industry work groups, vendors, customers, partners, and policy stakeholders.
- Lead Counterpart Health and Clover’s work around CMS interoperability requirements and compliance with those standards.
- Translate complex standards and implementation guides into clear product, engineering, partnership, and business recommendations.
- Build relationships with the leaders and organizations shaping healthcare interoperability, including HL7, Argonaut, Da Vinci, CMS, and the broader health tech ecosystem.
- Manage and develop a small team of interoperability engineers responsible for turning strategy into real capabilities.
Success in this role looks like:
- Counterpart Health is continued to be seen as a leading, active participant in the healthcare interoperability community.
- We have a clear strategy for how interoperability creates value for CA, Clover, providers, customers, and patients.
- Our work on CMS interoperability initiatives are strategically focused, technically sound, and commercially relevant.
- Internal teams understand what matters in the standards landscape and where to place our bets.
- External partners and industry leaders know who we are, what we stand for, and how to work with us.
- The interoperability engineering team is focused, effective, and grounded in deep standards expertise.
You should get in touch if:
- You have 10+ years of experience in US healthcare interoperability, healthcare standards, payer-provider data exchange, or health technology strategy.
- You are deeply fluent in FHIR, HL7, implementation guides, and the practical realities of making healthcare data exchange work.
- You have meaningful experience with CMS interoperability requirements, the Da Vinci Project, Argonaut Project, US Core, or related national initiatives.
- You are already known in the healthcare interoperability community, or have directly participated in the forums where the industry’s direction is shaped.
- You can turn standards expertise into company strategy, product direction, partner strategy, and business value.
- You can lead a small technical team while staying close enough to the details to guide real implementation decisions.
