Lead, Organic Risk Adjustment

Become a part of our caring community

We are seeking a Lead, Organic Risk Adjustment to build, operationalize, and scale Humana's Organic Risk Adjustment (ORA) program.

This is not a role focused on maintaining existing processes or operating from the sidelines. We are looking for a builder and change agent who enjoys creating structure where it does not exist, solving complex business challenges, and turning ideas into measurable results.

Success in this role requires the ability to navigate ambiguity, challenge traditional ways of working, and bring together diverse stakeholders to deliver meaningful outcomes. This individual will play a key role in shaping and evolving the Organic Risk Adjustment program while helping the organization rethink how risk adjustment opportunities are identified, prioritized, and embedded within routine provider workflows.

The role will partner closely with clinical, operational, analytical, and business leaders across the enterprise to improve program performance and build sustainable capabilities that drive long-term impact.
