About The Position

AOM Infusion is a national home infusion therapy pharmacy that is expanding into ambulatory infusion centers (AICs) across a growing multi-state network. Our AICs are staffed by experienced nurse practitioners delivering specialty infusion therapies under physician governance. We are seeking Local Medical Directors in key markets to provide state-level clinical oversight and regulatory accountability for our NP-led sites. The Local Medical Director (LMD) is a fractional, contracted physician engagement responsible for the clinical oversight and regulatory compliance of AOM's AIC(s) within a defined state or geographic area. The LMD reports to AOM's National Medical Director, who sets clinical governance standards, owns policy and protocol development, and serves as the primary escalation point for quality and strategic matters. Day-to-day LMD engagement is purposefully scoped — focused on the defined regulatory, compliance, and chart review obligations specific to their state.
