Position Overview:

The BHMP Team Lead provides direct patient care while managing an assigned team of BHMPs at their designated CHC site. The Team Lead serves as the first point of contact for clinical and operational issues, monitoring performance metrics such as schedule utilization, encounter completion, and documentation timeliness, and collaborating with cross-functional leadership to align team performance with organizational goals. The Team Lead also supports onboarding, provider engagement, and workflow optimization to ensure effective integration and consistency across the assigned team.
