San Mateo County Health’s Behavioral Health & Recovery Services (BHRS) Division is seeking an experienced and strategic leader to serve as a Quality Management Clinical Services Manager I/II within the Quality Management (QM) Unit.

The Clinical Services Manager (CSM) I/II – Mental Health classification series provides leadership and oversight within comprehensive behavioral health programs and is flexibly staffed at the I or II level depending on qualifications and experience.

The Quality Management Unit provides countywide oversight of clinical quality, regulatory compliance, documentation standards, credentialing, site certification, audit readiness, performance monitoring, and implementation of new state and federal behavioral health requirements.

• Provide oversight of grievance, appeal, NOABD, and State Hearing tracking and reporting to ensure compliance with regulatory timelines and member rights protections.
• Oversee incident reporting and state breach processes, ensuring appropriate system-level review, follow-up, and mitigation.
• Direct site certification and re-certification activities for County-operated and contracted providers.
• Provide consultation, training, and technical assistance to managers and providers to support sustainable regulatory compliance.
• Partner with IT and MIS to align clinical documentation and regulatory requirements with electronic health record workflows.
• Monitor and analyze compliance data using electronic health records and data tools to inform decision-making and performance improvement.
• Supervise and develop Quality Management staff and ensure timely completion of reporting and regulatory deliverables.

 

The ideal candidate will bring:

• Strong knowledge of state and federal behavioral health regulations and experience translating regulatory requirements into operational guidance.
• Demonstrated experience leading quality assurance, compliance monitoring, audit preparation, clinical documentation review, and corrective action planning within behavioral health settings.
• Experience preparing reports, analyzing compliance data, and advising senior leadership on regulatory and quality trends.
• Strong analytical and organizational skills, including experience utilizing electronic health records and data tools (e.g., Excel, Smartsheet) to monitor performance, assess trends, and support decision-making.
• Experience in designing and delivering training and technical assistance aligned with regulatory requirements and system improvement goals.
• Experience supervising or leading teams and fostering accountability, performance improvement, and professional development.
• Ability to collaborate across clinical, fiscal, IT, contracting, and medical staff functions to ensure policy and workflow alignment.
