Jack McCallum, M.D., Ph.D.

Jack McCallum, MD, PhD is a pioneer in Medicare Risk Adjustment.  His involvement goes back to the implementation of the HCC methodology in the Medicare Advantage program after a distinguished career in medicine. 

Prior to founding CenseoHealth Jack was founder, President, and Chief Medical Officer of one of the first companies to apply clinically based algorithms to Medicare risk adjustment.  Before this he was a founding member of North Texas Specialty Physicians, a multi-specialty, risk-taking provider group that serves over 30,000 members in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area.

Before building a successful IPA and two groundbreaking service companies, Jack practiced adult and pediatric neurosurgery in Fort Worth for almost thirty years, while also serving as head of the medical staff at Fort Worth Children’s Hospital.  His medical training and depth of experience fuels CenseoHealth’s unique, clinically sophisticated process.

During a wholly unsuccessful first attempt to “retire,” Jack earned a doctorate in history from TCU and is currently AdRan Professor of the History of Science at TCU.  He has written a number of books and articles and given numerous presentations on health care policy and medical history.
