Chief Medical Officer

Pearl HealthBoston, Massachussets, United StatesRemote

Who we are. . .


Pearl Health is restoring the independence and joy of practicing medicine for doctors in the United States. Our healthcare system has burdened our doctors with too much process, while removing them from what they do best: caring for those we love most. We are a team of physicians and public health experts (Stanford, Dartmouth, Harvard, Mass. General), technologists (athenahealth, Apple, Amazon, Meta, Flatiron, WalMart Health), healthcare innovators (Oscar, Aledade, Stellar, Arcadia) and experienced risk management professionals (CVS/Aetna, Humana, Cigna, United) who believe that primary care providers (PCPs) are the key to the United States’  future health.

Our investors include Andreessen Horowitz, Viking Global Investors, AlleyCorp, and SV Angel. Pearl Health helps PCPs who are overwhelmed by the demands of an aging population and the unpredictable business model inherent to Medicare. Over time, this solution will empower PCPs to provide better care to the country. We believe there is a need to bring humanism back to healthcare by giving physicians the ability to better allocate their time with patients, increasing their autonomy, creating incentives that are aligned with achieving better outcomes through clinical decision-making powered by actionable intelligence, and making risk more available and more readily optimized through an intelligent marketplace. 

The role. . . 


We are seeking a highly experienced and visionary Chief Medical Officer (CMO) to join our executive team. The CMO will play a crucial role in guiding Pearl Health's clinical strategy, driving performance improvements in partner practices, enhancing our brand through thought leadership, and supporting our Growth team. This is a unique opportunity to shape the future of value-based care and make a significant impact on healthcare delivery.
