Manager, Patient Enrollment

What We Strive For 

At Strive Health, we’re driven by a purpose: transforming the broken kidney care system. Through early identification, engagement, and comprehensive coordinated care, we significantly improve outcomes for people with kidney disease, reducing emergency dialysis and inpatient utilization. Our high-touch care model integrates with local providers and uses predictive data to identify and support at-risk patients along their entire care journey. Recognized with ten prestigious workplace awards, including LinkedIn’s 2024 Top Startups in Denver, we’re setting a new standard in kidney care. We embrace diversity, celebrate successes, and support each other, making Strive the destination for top talent in healthcare. Join us in making a real difference.

What You’ll Do 

The Manager, Patient Enrollment is responsible for leading a remote-based call center consisting of Enrollment Associates to drive new patient enrollments and completed first visits between the patient and our care teams. Ultimately, the Manager is responsible for meeting enrollment and first visit expectations while also taking a hands-on approach to leading the team through continuous change in a supportive manner. Keeping the team prioritized and hitting benchmarks that matter most is a top priority while managing with the expectation that priorities often change.  Taking part in change means being part of the solution brainstorming, design, and implementation. Since our patients are often complex, the Manager must continuously coach our Patient Growth team on how to create a warmer, more empathetic connection. The front door to Strive begins with our Patient Growth team and creating highly engaged patients is critical. Given Strive Health’s growing successes, we have a high number of external clients we partner with to serve their patient populations.  This requires that our managers be timely and accurate with reporting to our internal and external audiences.  We must create confidence in our ability to not only enroll patients but also pivot as challenges occur.   

 The Manager, Patient Enrollment will report directly to the Vice President, Patient Growth. This is a leadership position with a high degree of exposure into senior leadership given the vital importance of patient growth. Knowing how to provide the right quantitative information coupled with qualitative learnings helps show a command of leading the team in the right direction.
