Remote Medical Alert Systems Jobs in Maynard, MA

Fractional Chief Medical Officer (CMO)

Location: Remote / Flexible

About Us:

Ladder Health is a virtual-first pediatric developmental care company, developed and tested at Boston Children's Hospital. We partner with pediatricians, health systems, and community organizations to deliver expert PT, OT, SLP, and feeding therapy for young children through an innovative caregiver-mediated model that expands access while improving outcomes.

As we continue to scale nationally, we're seeking a physician leader who can help shape both our clinical strategy and commercial growth.

The Opportunity:

Ladder Health is looking for a physician executive who will work directly with the CEO to strengthen enterprise and health system partnerships, expand physician relationships, generate clinical evidence, and help shape the future of pediatric developmental care.

This is not a traditional internal clinical operations role. We're seeking an externally oriented physician leader who enjoys building relationships, opening doors, developing physician champions, and helping health systems adopt innovative models of care.

You'll help Ladder Health strengthen credibility with physicians, health systems, academic leaders, payers, and strategic partners while guiding our long-term evolution from fee-for-service toward value-based pediatric care.

This fractional position (5-10 hours/week) is designed with a clear pathway toward a full-time Chief Medical Officer role as the company continues to scale.

Clinical Leadership & Market Development

• Build and lead Ladder Health's Clinical Advisory Board while translating clinical evidence into compelling stories that strengthen enterprise partnerships, payer discussions, publications, and commercialization
• Develop regional physician champion networks by identifying respected pediatricians, developmental pediatricians, neonatologists, family physicians, and health system leaders who can advocate for Ladder Health and accelerate local market expansion through peer-to-peer engagement
• Serve as a strategic clinical advisor across the organization, helping ensure customer insights continuously inform commercialization, product strategy, and clinical excellence

Evidence Generation & Future Care Models

• Lead Ladder Health's evidence-generation strategy through clinical outcomes research, implementation science, peer-reviewed publications, and real-world evidence demonstrating the value of caregiver-mediated developmental care
• Help define the clinical strategy, quality metrics, utilization measures, and outcomes data needed to support value-based care, alternative payment models, and future reimbursement innovation
• Develop relationships with academic institutions, children's hospitals, Medicaid leaders, payers, and other strategic organizations to advance research collaborations and future commercialization opportunities
• Identify emerging opportunities across pediatric digital health, integrated care delivery, reimbursement innovation, and population health that strengthen Ladder Health's long-term strategy

Product & Clinical Strategy

• Provide physician leadership for product strategy, ensuring our platform reflects the evolving needs of patients, families, providers, health systems, and payers
• Partner closely with Product, Technology and Engineering teams to design clinically sound workflows while supporting future quality measurement, outcomes reporting, and commercialization
• Advise executive leadership on emerging policy, regulatory, and market trends influencing pediatric developmental care

Success will be measured by your ability to:

• Strengthen enterprise partnerships and physician credibility
