Lead health plan and delegation workstreams, including transition of delegated functions, delegation agreement amendments, health plan notifications, readiness for delegation oversight audits, and regulatory filings with DMHC, CMS, and other state regulators as required.
Lead finance and claims workstreams, including claims run-out and system cutover, IBNR and capitation payment handoffs, bank and vendor transitions, and entity and intercompany structure changes with Accounting and Legal.

Lead people and change management workstreams, including provider and staff communications, town halls, key-person retention, role mapping, and culture integration with the People team.
Lead implementation for new partnerships and market launches by translating signed partnership and management services agreements into implementation plans covering service scope, staffing, systems, reporting, and performance targets.
Onboard new IPAs and provider groups onto the Astrana platform, including MSO service standup, data connectivity, quality and risk adjustment program launch, and provider engagement.
Support development of repeatable market-entry and affiliation playbooks so each new partnership launches faster and cleaner than the last.

About the Role

Astrana is growing through acquisition and partnership. The Integration Lead owns that problem. You will run post-close integration for acquired entities and lead implementation for new partnerships and market launches, from signing through steady state. You will stand up the integration management office for each transaction, define the workstreams, hold the functional owners accountable to a plan, surface risks to the executive team early, and personally close the gaps nobody else owns.

This is an individual contributor role with no direct reports. Your leverage comes from influence over functional owners, not from headcount. This is not a coordination role either. You will build the Day 1 and Day 100 plans, reconcile the provider roster, pressure-test the synergy model, draft the physician communication, sit in the health plan delegation audit, and present the status readout to the CEO and CFO. The right candidate moves comfortably between those altitudes in the same week and is curious enough to go learn whatever the next workstream requires.

You will report to the Vice President of Strategy & Partnerships and work daily with Finance, Provider Contracting, Network Management, Claims, Health Plan Operations, Clinical and Quality, Risk Adjustment, Technology, Legal, Compliance, and People, as well as the leadership teams of the organizations we acquire and partner with.
