Meet Jan Conti
Network Management Administrator,
Community Care

Jan Conti has been working in a provider contracting capacity for 25 years. She has extensive experience working for both general medical and specialized managed care organizations as well as insurance companies. She has also worked with physician practices, independent practice associations and worker’s compensation.

Jan made a decision approximately three years ago to take her skill sets and move them into the non-profit environment. She enjoys the challenges she has been provided at Community Care especially since Community Care has now moved into a major growth mode, which involves fast paced provider network expansion.

Jan is clearly a woman with entrepreneurial spirit. When asked what makes her tick, she doesn’t hesitate: “Start ups, fast growth, a dynamic environment.”

Through her drive and hard work (and the good fortune of having excellent mentors, she adds), she had moved up the ladder and had a prime post in a large, international insurance company. It should have presented the challenges on which she thrives. Instead, Jan found it “convoluted, complicated and cumbersome – not to mention cut-throat. I couldn’t see the impact of anything I was doing,” she says.

When she heard one of her mentors was very happy working with a non-profit, Jan decided to explore the non-profit sector as well. Three years ago this November, she brought her exceptional talents to Community Care and it has proven to be a win-win situation.

“It is my joy to work in this organization, where I am able to see what we do to help others on a daily basis,” says Jan. “On top of that, I am very impressed by our top leadership. They are intelligent, ethical and dedicated to our mission.”

The icing on the cake – there is a lot to learn, says Jan. “I like lots of variety and we’ve got it,” from a variety of programs to expansion into new locations.
