Bolstered by Waterloo Counseling Center and a passionate team of over 250 dedicated employees and volunteers, THA is at the forefront of promoting healthcare equity and accessibility throughout the state.
The Director of Revenue Cycle will lead the design and implementation of Texas Health Action's first comprehensive revenue cycle management (RCM) function for Kind Clinic.

With high visibility across the organization, this leader will collaborate closely with Clinical Operations, Health Information Management, Finance, and external partners to build a scalable and compliant infrastructure that supports long-term sustainability and access to care.
