  • Budgeting & Forecasting: Own and maintain robust financial models to drive the annual budgeting, monthly forecasting, and long-range planning processes for hospice programs and branches.
  • Hospice Metrics & Scenario Modeling: Run ad-hoc scenario analyses to evaluate the financial impact of changes in patient volumes, regulatory reimbursement models, Medicare cap limitations, and operational changes.
  • Headcount & Labor Optimization: Oversee the financial tracking and forecasting of clinical and administrative personnel expenses, optimizing direct care labor hours and headcount planning in alignment with HR and payroll.

Sales Enablement & Commercial Support
  • Sales Performance Analytics: Provide dedicated financial support to the sales and business development teams, tracking referral pipelines, conversion rates, and account executive productivity to identify growth opportunities.
  • Territory & Market Profitability: Analyze geographic market trends, provider referral patterns, and account-level profitability to guide sales leadership in territory planning and resource allocation.
  • ROI & Growth Strategy: Evaluate the financial return on marketing spend, community outreach initiatives, and business development programs to maximize admissions growth efficiency.

Incentive Compensation & Commission Ownership
  • Commission Plan Management: Oversee and optimize the end-to-end calculation, validation, and submission of hospice admissions, sales, and clinical incentive/commission plans to accounting and payroll.
  • Incentive Modeling & Impact: Model proposed changes to commission and sales incentive structures to evaluate their projected impact on admissions volume, rep retention, and total corporate spend.
  • Compliance & Audit Support: Ensure all incentive and commission processes uphold strict regulatory compliance standards specific to healthcare and hospice regulations, ensuring complete transparency and data auditability.

Reporting, Business Intelligence & Data Quality
  • Variance & Trend Analysis: Lead the development, analysis, and presentation of monthly performance trends and variance reports (e.g., Actuals vs. Target admissions, revenue, and spend) for senior leadership.
  • Executive Visibility & KPI Tracking: Deliver accurate, timely, and actionable financial and operational KPIs (such as Average Daily Census, Cost per Patient Day, and Admissions volumes) to drive strategic decision-making.
  • Dashboards & Visualizations: Design and maintain dynamic dashboards using BI tools (e.g., Power BI, Tableau, Excel) to effectively communicate hospice financial health, sales pipeline data, and commission metrics.
  • Data Integrity & Reconciliation: Lead efforts to reconcile CRM (sales/referral), billing, and financial system discrepancies through detailed analysis, driving collaboration with data owners to ensure data quality and consistency.
  • Data Security: Uphold strict confidentiality and safeguard sensitive financial, commercial, and protected health information (PHI) in compliance with HIPAA guidelines
