Healthcare Consulting Senior Director - CDI & Coding
role at
Huron
Huron helps its clients drive growth, enhance performance, and sustain leadership in the markets they serve. We help healthcare organizations build innovation capabilities and accelerate key growth initiatives, enabling organizations to own the future instead of being disrupted by it. Together we empower clients to create sustainable growth, optimize internal processes, and deliver better consumer outcomes.
Health systems, hospitals, and medical clinics are under immense pressure to improve clinical outcomes and reduce the cost of providing patient care. Investing in new partnerships, clinical services, and technology alone is not enough to create meaningful and substantive change. To succeed long‑term, healthcare organizations must empower leaders, clinicians, employees, affiliates, and communities to build cultures that foster innovation to achieve the best outcomes for patients.
Joining the Huron team means you’ll help our clients evolve and adapt to the rapidly changing healthcare environment and optimize existing business operations, improve clinical outcomes, create a more consumer‑centric healthcare experience, and drive physician, patient, and employee engagement across the enterprise.
As a Senior Director on our Healthcare team, you will guide complex performance improvement initiatives, shaping high‑performing environments and ensuring exceptional client outcomes. You’ll own engagement‑wide economics, apply strategic thinking to quantify benefits, and craft solutions that elevate operational excellence. You’ll also play a key role in our growing Reimbursement Solution capability, guiding clients through the complexities of clinical documentation integrity and coding – ultimately helping them optimize reimbursement and strengthen financial performance. Your leadership will foster an inclusive, empowering culture where diverse perspectives thrive.
Responsibilities
Lead complex performance improvement engagements, creating collaborative, high‑performing environments and ensuring successful client outcomes.
Manage engagement‑wide economics, including budgets, revenue forecasting, margins, invoicing, and billing.
Apply analytical and critical thinking skills to quantify benefits, identify risks, and develop solutions for performance improvement initiatives.
Communicate effectively to understand client challenges, create customized solutions, and manage client expectations, delivering impactful presentations and proposals.
Build strong executive‑level relationships, lead change processes, and identify new business opportunities, leveraging Huron's capabilities to meet client objectives.
Requirements
Bachelor’s degree required.
Minimum of 10 years of relevant experience, including at least 5 years of progressive healthcare management consulting experience. A combination of consulting and senior leadership roles within provider organizations may be considered, but strong healthcare consulting experience is essential.
Extensive healthcare inpatient documentation experience.
Extensive experience managing major projects for large, complex healthcare organizations with multiple stakeholders.
Demonstrated executive‑level presence with the ability to manage client relationships, provide strategic insights, contribute to methodology development, and lead continuous solution advancement.
Ability to travel based on client, enterprise, or project needs; average annual travel is less than 50%.
Direct supervisory experience of individuals and large, complex teams.
Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Word, PowerPoint, Excel).
US work authorization required.
Preferences
Master’s degree or equivalent experience.
Experience in a matrixed organization or cross‑functional team environment.
The estimated base salary range for this job is $215,000 – $265,000. The range represents a good faith estimate of the range that Huron reasonably expects to pay for this job at the time of the posting. Huron’s annual incentive compensation program may also apply, reflecting our pay‑for‑performance philosophy. Inclusive of incentive compensation, the total estimated compensation range is $268,750 – $350,750. The job is also eligible to participate in Huron’s benefit plans, which include medical, dental, and vision coverage and other wellness programs. Salary transparency complies with applicable state and local laws.
