Mount Sinai – Commercialization Team
Manager, At-Home Services
Background
Mount Sinai is one of the largest health systems in the U.S. with a strong reputation for quality of care (14th ranked US academic medical center) and innovative research/education (20th ranked US medical school, >$400M annually in NIH-funded research). This reputation is important but it’s not enough. At Mount Sinai, we have a responsibility to make healthcare better, optimizing its value for patients, purchasers, and communities.
The health care industry has a number of problems. Chief among them is affordability as federal and state governments are unable to keep Medicare and Medicaid solvent. Meanwhile, employers are stretched to pay for health benefits for their employees, and those employees struggle to afford increasing paycheck deductions and deductibles. In addition, the industry has historically set a low bar for customer service, earning some of the lowest satisfaction scores of any industry, eroding trust from stakeholders. We want to change all of this.
The Commercialization Team was created to solve these problems. We have assembled Mount Sinai’s clinical and population health assets into product offerings of high-quality care that are affordable and distinguish themselves via exceptional service. Our offerings include advisory services, next-gen primary care at or near the workplace (“Health Centers”), centers of excellence for specialty care, and next-gen insurance products in partnership with health plans. Our team markets and sells these products directly to the purchaser – i.e., consumers, large employers, labor unions. We are looking for people to join our team who are passionate about solving these problems by developing a true system of care that can create and sustain market-leading value.
