Duet is on a mission to transform primary care by empowering nurse practitioners (NPs) to own and operate their practices. By providing NPs with tailored products and services within a supportive setting, Duet is building the nation’s largest network of NP-owned practices, driving better outcomes for patients and communities.

Role Overview:

Duet is looking for a dynamic, strategic, and execution-oriented Head of Payor Partnerships to lead our health plan and payor relationships. This is a rare opportunity to join a high-growth company and shape the future of our go-to-market and reimbursement strategy. Reporting directly to the CEO, you’ll play a pivotal role in defining how Duet engages with payors and scales value-based partnerships across the country.

You’ll lead everything from market strategy and outreach to contract negotiation and implementation—building partnerships that enable NP-owned practices to thrive. This is a high-impact, highly visible role ideal for someone who knows how to navigate health plans and thrives in an entrepreneurial environment.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead identification, negotiation, and implementation of strategic partnerships with commercial and government payors.

• Build and execute a comprehensive prospecting strategy—including outreach, referrals, events, and networking.
• Deeply understand Duet’s capabilities and align them with the strategic goals of potential partners to identify high-value opportunities.
• Own the contracting pipeline: manage payor scoping, negotiations, contract review, implementation, and go-live.
• Provide feedback loops on Duet’s performance and value-add to internal and external stakeholders.
• Create and maintain market-specific payor models—analyzing revenue, utilization, provider types, product lines, and payment methodologies.
• Prepare and execute negotiation strategies, including term sheet creation and financial modeling.
• Lead review and redlining of contract language through to execution.
• Use CRM (e.g., Salesforce, Hubspot, etc.) to track activity, market insights, and progress across deals.
• Define and track KPIs to measure the impact and performance of partnerships.
• Represent Duet at industry events, conferences, and networking forums.

Qualifications:

• 5–7 years of experience in healthcare, ideally in an external-facing role with a focus on payor relations, business development, or health plan or provider network management.
• Demonstrated experience with value-based care contracting—either direct or in a strong supporting role is required.
• Proven ability to lead negotiations, draft proposals, and present complex partnership strategies to C-level audiences.
• Strong project management skills and ability to lead cross-functional initiatives to completion.
• Proficiency in data modeling, contract performance analysis, and market intelligence gathering is strongly preferred.
• Highly organized, detail-oriented, and adept at juggling multiple workstreams and deadlines.
• Self-starter with a bias toward action; thrives in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment.
• Willingness to travel monthly for conferences and partner meetings.
