The Clinical Quality Specialist (RN) plays a key role in advancing the quality, safety, and effectiveness of the member experience at Included Health. This position focuses on evaluating and improving how members engage with care across all touchpoints—including virtual visits, messaging, phone interactions, follow-up communications, and care navigation—to ensure every interaction is clinically appropriate, evidence-based, member-centered, and aligned with high-value care principles.   A central responsibility of this role is supporting the safe and effective use of Included Health’s integrated AI-enabled tools and workflows. Under the guidance of the Clinical Quality and Safety leadership team, the Clinical Quality Specialist applies clinical expertise and nursing judgment to review AI-assisted outputs, identify potential risks, and help ensure AI-supported care experiences remain accurate, safe, reliable, and clinically sound.   This role is responsible for executing established quality and safety workflows, participating in clinical reviews and investigations, and contributing to cross-functional quality improvement initiatives. The Clinical Quality Specialist will partner with teams across the organization while developing expertise in healthcare quality, patient safety, and AI-enabled care delivery. #LI-Remote KEY RESPONSIBILITIES: Member Journey Quality, Safety, and Value Review charts, calls, messages, and other member interactions to assess quality, safety, and member experience across the care journey, using standardized tools and criteria. Apply nursing judgment to identify potential clinical risks, gaps in care, or documentation issues, and escalate concerns to quality and safety leaders as appropriate. Help ensure individual visits and touch points follow clinical protocols and support appropriate, affordable utilization (e.g., avoiding unnecessary ER visits and duplication of services). Support intake and basic triage of member complaints, grievances, and escalations, documenting clearly and routing high-risk or complex issues to leadership. Summarize findings from reviews in clear, concise case notes and reports that help cross-functional partners understand what happened and what needs to improve. Clinical Oversight of Integrated AI Tools Use AI-enabled tools (e.g., AI-assisted QA, documentation review, signal detection) in daily work, following established policies and guardrails for safety and privacy. Review AI-generated flags, summaries, or recommendations for clinical accuracy, appropriateness, and member-centric tone, and escalate any safety or accuracy concerns. Identify and document patterns in AI behavior (false positives/negatives, unclear suggestions, member risk) and share them with the quality and safety team for system-level improvement. Participate in testing and feedback for new or updated AI tools and workflows, providing a frontline nursing perspective on safety, usability, and member impact. Help ensure that integrated AI tooling supports, rather than replaces, sound nursing and clinical judgment in the member journey. Data, Reporting, and Improvement Support Assist with data collection and basic analysis for quality and safety work (e.g., tracking escalations, coding themes from reviews, updating simple dashboards or logs). Support preparation of materials for audits, reviews, and quality improvement initiatives (e.g., curated case examples, summary tables, slide inputs). Share observed patterns in member journey quality, safety, and AI performance with leadership to help prioritize improvement opportunities. Participate, as requested, in root cause discussions and follow-up planning, bringing a member-focused nursing perspective to proposed changes. Collaboration and Professional Growth Collaborate with the Clinical Quality and Safety team, clinical operations, and other partners to support a consistent, reliable member journey across services and channels. Communicate clearly and professionally in written and verbal formats (e.g., investigation notes, email, chat, meetings) with clinicians, leaders, and cross-functional teams. Maintain current knowledge of clinical quality, patient safety, and virtual care best practices, as well as organizational policies related to AI-enabled workflows. Uphold HIPAA, security, and privacy standards at all times and model Included Health values, including humility, curiosity, and a commitment to equitable, high-quality care.
