As Vice President of Medical Management at Neighborhood, Lupoli redesigned the Neighborhood's strategy for working with its members, moving from a traditional, clinical managed care telephonic approach to a face-to-face, inter-disciplinary team approach, incorporating community outreach workers and other specialists.
She also created the Integrated Behavioral Health program that assists Neighborhood’s care management teams in their efforts to support Neighborhood’s most medically fragile members.
