Job Description & Requirements
Associate Dean for Clinical Affairs in Michigan
StartDate: ASAP Pay Rate: $275000.00 - 350000.00
Newly Opened Medical School, Outstanding Ambulatory Clinics and Award-Winning Teaching Hospitals
Western Michigan University Homer Stryker M.D. School of Medicine (WMed) is seeking an exceptional leader to serve as the Associate Dean for Clinical Affairs. As one of the newer US medical schools, WMed is an exciting environment to pursue an academic career. The medical school is a collaboration of Western Michigan University and Kalamazoo's two teaching hospitals, Borgess Health and Bronson Healthcare. The medical school is a private 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation supported by private gifts, clinical revenues, research activities, tuition, and endowment income. WMed is fully accredited by the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME) and also by the Higher Learning Commission (HLC). The inaugural medical student class graduated in 2018 after completing an innovative, patient-centered four-year curriculum that prepares them to be exceptional clinicians, leaders, educators, advocates, and researchers of tomorrow. There are more than 200 residents and fellows in ten residencies and three fellowships accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME). WMed has Joint Accreditation for interprofessional continuing education, which incorporates accreditation by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME). The School of Medicine Clinics are housed in a modern 60,000 square foot clinical building on the Oakland Drive Campus and are accredited by The Joint Commission with recognition by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) as a Patient-Centered Medical Home. The 350,000 square foot educational building on the W.E. Upjohn M.D. Campus located in downtown Kalamazoo underwent a $78 million renovation and expansion project including two laboratory research floors and a state-of-the-art Simulation Center that is accredited by the Society for Simulation in Healthcare. The Innovation Center on the Parkview Campus is a life science, technology, and engineering incubator serving the earliest startups to maturing companies with laboratory, office and conference space, access to core scientific equipment and expertise, and a wide range of support services.
Kalamazoo is a wonderful and vibrant city, located midway between Chicago and Detroit. It is a short distance from Lake Michigan, and home to two nationally ranked institutions of higher learning, Western Michigan University, and Kalamazoo College. Kalamazoo is known for its community focus and emphasis on access to quality education at all levels. The Kalamazoo Promise is a nationally renowned program in which graduates of Kalamazoo Public Schools receive free tuition to attend public and private colleges in Michigan. Kalamazoo and Michigan provide extensive entertainment and recreational activities, including opportunities to enjoy the outdoors, unique restaurants and shops, and a strong culture supporting the arts.
The Associate Dean for Clinical Affairs must have at least five years of progressively responsible direct experience in managing patient care functions in an academic healthcare environment. The direct experience must include experience in an academic multispecialty group practice. In addition, the individual must have an intimate working knowledge of medical school teaching and research activities, clinical service delivery systems, and the current and planned dynamic healthcare delivery reforms. Demonstrated skills in strategic planning, system implementation, clinical operations, and grants oversight are required. Knowledge of clinical compliance issues, credentialing, billing, and budget development and management are essential. An equivalent combination of experience may be considered. For candidates who are more interested in pursuing a quality and patient safety career track, there is also an opportunity to serve as Assistant Dean for Quality Improvement – a newly created position at WMed.
Interested candidates should provide a curriculum vitae and a letter of interest that describes the candidate’s relevant qualifications for this position, as well as their educational, teaching, research and leadership background. Candidates are requested to also provide the names and contact information for three to five references. The references will not be contacted without the prior approval of the candidate.
