**Location: East/Central

MedeAnalytics is seeking a Vice President of Government Strategic Growth to build and scale a high-performance revenue engine across state Medicaid agencies, managed care organizations (MCOs), and health systems, connecting our healthcare performance ecosystem.

This executive will drive enterprise adoption of our AI-powered analytics, interoperability, quality/risk, utilization management, and managed actions platform — positioning the company as a transformation partner in Medicaid, rural and community health modernization and sustainability.

This is a critical leadership role in a PE-backed growth platform, responsible for accelerating revenue, expanding market share, and building durable competitive advantage in the government and private sector healthcare markets.

Strategic Mandate

  • Architect and execute a repeatable go-to-market strategy across state Medicaid and connected stakeholders
  • Close large, multi-year enterprise contracts ($10M+)
  • Drive cross-buyer adoption (state agency + MCO + health system alignment)
  • Position AI-driven analytics as a financial and operational lever — not a reporting tool
  • Establish the company as the decision infrastructure layer for Medicaid transformation

Revenue Growth & Market Expansion

  • Develop a 3-year public-sector expansion strategy
  • Prioritize states aligned with Medicaid transformation, 1115 waivers, VBP acceleration, and rural stabilization initiatives
  • Build and manage a predictable enterprise pipeline across state agencies, HHS departments, MCOs, and IDNs
  • Close complex, multi-stakeholder enterprise deals (12–36 month sales cycles)

Executive-Level Market Positioning

Position the platform as:

  • AI-driven decision support for financial outcome improvement
  • A unifying interoperability layer across fragmented disparate data systems
  • A quality and risk performance accelerator – HEDIS, STARS, Other
  • A utilization management engine for cost management, denials, and prior authorizations
  • A margin protection and reimbursement strategy for rural and safety-net providers

Complex Enterprise Orchestration

  • Navigate state procurement, RFP processes, and legislative funding cycles
  • Shape opportunities pre-RFP through executive engagement
  • Align with CMS policy trends and federal funding streams
  • Coordinate multi-party deals across states, MCOs, health systems, and integration partners

AI & Analytics Value Articulation

Translate platform capabilities into financial impact:

  • Risk adjustment optimization
  • HEDIS and quality performance gains
  • Avoidable utilization reduction
  • Value-based contract performance
  • Care gap closure
  • Rural hospital sustainability metrics
  • Drive messaging around faster decision velocity, measurable margin impact, and reduced administrative friction.

PE-Aligned Commercial Discipline

  • Build a repeatable state-entry playbook
  • Shorten sales cycles through structured opportunity management
  • Increase ACV and multi-year contract penetration
  • Support EBITDA expansion through platform leverage
  • Identify strategic partnerships and tuck-in opportunities

Required Experience

  • 10+ years enterprise healthcare sales experience
  • Demonstrated success closing $5M–$25M+ contracts in healthcare
  • Direct selling experience into state Medicaid agencies, Medicaid MCOs, and rural and community health systems
  • Deep understanding of Medicaid financing, waivers, value-based care, risk adjustment, quality programs, and interoperability frameworks (HL7, FHIR)
  • Proven success in a PE-backed or high-growth healthcare technology company

Performance Metrics

  • Public-sector ARR growth
  • Enterprise deal size expansion
  • State-level market penetration
  • Cross-buyer expansion (state + MCO + provider)
  • Pipeline predictability and win rates
  • Strategic partnership development
  • Contribution to valuation growth

What Exceptional Looks Like

Within 24–36 months:

  • Embedded presence in multiple state Medicaid ecosystems
  • Platform recognized as core infrastructure
  • Predictable, scalable, margin-accretive public-sector revenue
  • Rural health transformation established as a signature vertical
  • Enhanced valuation multiple driven by durable public-sector positioning
