VP, Clinical Services
About The Position
Pharmacy1st Health is building the clinical infrastructure for rural America by transforming independent pharmacies into integrated care delivery hubs. Our model combines primary care, pharmacy services, and chronic disease management under one roof, creating a new, lower-cost site of care for underserved communities. We operate across multiple states and are rapidly expanding a network of rural clinics co-located with pharmacies. Our goal is to deliver scalable, high-quality care while improving access, outcomes, and cost efficiency. The VP, Clinical Services, will lead the design, development, and deployment of new clinical programs across Pharmacy1st’s clinic network. This is not a purely administrative role. You will be responsible for translating clinical insight into scalable service lines that drive both patient outcomes and sustainable revenue. You will work at the intersection of care delivery, operations, and product, building programs that can be deployed consistently across rural markets and deliver measurable impact.
