About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Build and maintain Leap's outcomes framework across adherence, safety, patient-reported outcomes, and disease-specific clinical measures.
Define metric definitions, denominator and numerator logic, inclusion criteria, calculation methods, and validity standards.
Align outcomes methodologies with recognized specialty pharmacy, home infusion, and quality measurement standards where appropriate (e.g., NHIA quality measures and other industry benchmarks).
Maintain clear documentation of metric definitions, methodology updates, and the rationale for changes over time.
Define and stand up Leap's safety event taxonomy and reporting approach across infusion reactions, treatment interruptions, escalation events, near-misses, and other clinically relevant incidents.
Own the clinical review and quality assurance process supporting accurate safety event capture from clinical documentation and operational workflows.
Produce recurring safety trend reports for clinical leadership, including root-cause themes, emerging risks, and recommendations for process improvement.
Build patient-level adherence monitoring across therapies, conditions, and populations.
Define infusion-specific adherence methodology — persistence, schedule conformance, dose fidelity, treatment completion, and tolerability — rather than retail-pharmacy measures like PDC or MPR, which weren't built for HCP-administered infusion therapy.
Build a risk-flagging process that identifies patients at elevated risk for treatment interruption or discontinuation, incorporating signals such as missed infusions, delayed authorizations, site-of-care disruptions, and medication access barriers.
Partner with care teams to operationalize proactive outreach triggers for at-risk patients.
Select, adapt, and implement validated patient-reported outcome instruments appropriate for specialty infusion populations where clinically appropriate.
Partner with Engineering and Clinical Operations to implement survey delivery workflows and structured response capture.
Analyze and interpret outcomes data to generate clinically defensible evidence of program impact.
Produce outcomes reporting and evidence packages supporting employer reporting, client QBRs, payer discussions, and manufacturer partnerships.
