Head of Revenue Cycle Operations

Figure Health is building a national senior care platform powered by SpecialOS, an AI-native operating system for healthcare services. Figure Health is part of Special, founded by Nate Cavanaugh and Justin Fox after their work at DOGE and backed by a16z, Human Capital, Antonio Gracias, Brian Armstrong, and other leading technology investors.

We are hiring a hands-on healthcare systems builder to design, recruit, and run Figure Health's centralized intake-to-cash organization across our acquisitions nationwide. This is not a traditional billing-management role. You will own the workflows, people, controls, metrics, and technology spanning referral intake, insurance verification, authorizations, order management, coding and OASIS review, scheduling operations, QA, billing, cash posting, denials, accounts receivable, and related administrative functions.

You will inherit fragmented processes across acquired agencies and turn them into one high-performing operating system. You must be equally comfortable mapping a broken workflow, managing a large distributed team, reviewing payer-level performance, and working directly with engineers to automate repetitive work.

• →

• First 30 days: map every workflow, team, system, backlog, and KPI at each acquired agency; identify immediate cash, quality, and staffing interventions.

• First 90 days: establish common scorecards and daily management; stabilize high-risk workflows; finalize the central-operations org design and hiring plan; launch the first automation priorities.

• First 12 months: operate one scalable intake-to-cash model across acquisitions, with faster referral response, cleaner claims, lower denial rates, reduced A/R, stronger labor productivity, and auditable quality controls.

• 7+ years in healthcare operations, revenue cycle, shared services, implementation, or a closely related function, including meaningful leadership of managers and frontline teams.

• Experience in revenue cycle, patient access, claims, clinical operations, or another operationally complex healthcare workflow; home-health expertise is helpful but not required.

• Working knowledge of Medicare, Medicaid, managed care, authorizations, claims, denials, and accounts receivable; familiarity with PDGM, OASIS, or home-health coding is a plus.

• Demonstrated success standardizing operations across multiple locations, business units, acquisitions, or payer environments.

• Highly technical and data-fluent: able to define system requirements, understand integrations and data flows, interrogate dashboards, and partner credibly with engineers.

• Exceptionally process-oriented, detail-obsessed, and comfortable going several levels deeper than a typical executive.

• Insanely high energy, with the urgency, stamina, and personal ownership to thrive in an intense, Elon-style operating culture.

• A builder with low ego and extreme agency - willing to personally solve problems before delegating them and then create a system that makes the solution repeatable.

• Strong recruiter and people manager who can set a high bar, build trust, create accountability, and develop a durable leadership bench.

• Comfortable in an acquisition-driven, fast-changing environment with incomplete information and high expectations.

• Exceptional academic achievement from a highly selective university is preferred; equivalent evidence of unusual achievement and intellectual horsepower is equally compelling.

• Based in Austin or willing to relocate; regular travel to acquired agencies is required.
