Implementation Manager - Innovaccer Platform (Remote/Hybrid)

The Organization 

The PopHealth Learning Center (“Learning Center”) is a California Social Purpose Corporation (SPC) committed to transforming how health care is delivered and experienced across California. The Learning Center’s mission is to bring together health care teams, insurers, and policymakers to keep communities healthy through care that works for patients, inspires providers, and lasts. The Learning Center aims to become a catalyst for aligned statewide population health transformation in Medi-Cal (California’s Medicaid program) and adjacent safety net programs. This includes aligning key funders and initiatives around a consistent approach to build capacity for population health management in the Medi-Cal delivery system, to advance health equity at scale in California.

The Learning Center serves as the Program Office for a statewide Medi-Cal focused practice initiative, the Equity and Practice Transformation (EPT) program, funded by the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS). The Learning Center’s broader goal is to build a just and equitable healthcare system for all Californians, especially the people and communities who have been historically underserved. A key part of our work is to build on our foundational partnership with the DHCS and expand our impact to additional primary care practices and partners statewide.

The Learning Center also leads the implementation of the Population Health Management Initiative (PHMI), including deployment of the Innovaccer platform, which enables secure, standardized access to clinical, claims, and social needs data to drive whole-person care coordination across California. Through these initiatives, the Learning Center is building an integrated data ecosystem and advancing scalable solutions that strengthen quality, accountability, and performance improvement statewide.

The Position 

The Implementation Manager – Innovaccer Platform will play a pivotal role in supporting the statewide Population Health Management Initiative by managing the end-to-end implementation of Innovaccer-based population health management tools at participating practices.


This role collaborates closely with PHMI program leadership, the Learning Center’s data and informatics teams, and the Innovaccer vendor to ensure that implementations are consistent with statewide objectives and practice-level needs.

• Support practices in leveraging data insights to identify care gaps, manage patient panels, and drive improvement in outcomes and efficiency.

• Facilitate change management, user adoption, and continuous learning among practice teams.

Cross-Functional Coordination

• Partner with the Learning Center’s data, quality, and informatics teams to ensure that implementation activities support the broader data and reporting framework of PHMI.

• Monitor implementation progress, identify risks and barriers, and escalate issues to PHMI leadership as appropriate.

• Collaborate with the Learning Center’s analytics and evaluation teams to define and monitor key metrics for adoption, utilization, and impact.

• Document and disseminate lessons learned and best practices to inform continuous improvement and future implementations.

Quality and Performance Enablement

• Drive alignment between platform use and the Learning Center’s statewide quality and equity objectives.

• Promote consistent, data-driven approaches to care coordination and performance improvement across practices.

• Contribute to the development of standard implementation toolkits, templates, and playbooks to support scalable and repeatable success.

Team and Culture Building

• Foster a collaborative and inclusive environment that supports professional growth and development.

• Promote a culture of continuous improvement by identifying opportunities to enhance processes, systems, and team capacity.

• Act as a cultural steward, ensuring the Learning Center’s values of equity, inclusion, and collaboration are reflected in the team’s work and interactions.

Qualifications and Preferred Experience
