With more than 20 years of experience working in public health and healthcare, Cameron Graham leverages her healthcare quality and value-based care expertise and knowledge of statewide public health investments to improve health outcomes. Driven by a passion for strengthening primary care and public health infrastructure, Cameron helped lead practice transformation efforts with an accountable care organization (ACO) and advocated for statewide health and wellness improvements as the lead legislative liaison for a public health foundation.

Before joining Health Management Associates, Cameron held several change management roles with Community Care of North Carolina, a clinically integrated network and ACO. She was recognized for practice-wide change facilitation for primary care and behavioral health, leveraging quality measures such as Medicare Star Ratings, Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CAHPS), and Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS).  She coached a diverse group of practices on improving quality measures, including local health departments, federally qualified health centers (FQHC’s), multi-specialty healthcare systems, and independent primary care practices.  She also founded and led the network’s first Behavioral Health Roundtable learning collaborative, successfully convening and aligning a diverse group of providers to prepare for Medicaid managed care

Most recently, Cameron served as one of the clinically integrated network’s first quality improvement specialists overseeing practice quality improvement, identifying social determinants and drivers of health for rural North Carolinians to improve access to quality primary care. She has supported quality improvement work in statewide programs including North Carolina’s Medicaid Managed Care Advanced Medical Home model, Patient-Centered Medical Home, the Translating Clinical Practice Initiative, and the Children’s Health Insurance Program.

In addition to quality improvement, Cameron has experience in process improvement, foundation strategy, grantmaking, strategic communications and a range of public health topics, including maternal and child health, behavioral health, adolescent health, and skilled nursing care. She has consulted with government agencies, healthcare associations, foundations, nonprofits, and primary care practices, enhancing organizational impact. 

With the North Carolina Health and Wellness Trust Fund, Cameron managed multi-million-dollar investments supporting capital infrastructure, capacity building, technical assistance, and strategic partnerships with state agencies, foundations, nonprofits, and research institutions. For her contributions to the state, she was honored with the NC Pediatric Society’s Good for Kids award in 2011. She then worked as an independent consultant and continued advising and aligning stakeholders around shared investments in public health and healthy communities.

Cameron earned her Master of Public Health from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and her bachelor’s degree in Spanish from Agnes Scott College.
