Job description
At Groups, the Senior Staff Provider, Access works with a small team of experienced providers, counselors, and support-staff to facilitate intakes and enhanced medical support throughout the early weeks of treatment for Groups members. You will leverage telemedicine extensively in your work, so you must be comfortable with technology and enthusiastic about the benefits of this exciting modality. You will work daily to overcome the barriers faced by members early in recovery and must adopt a “member-first” attitude that prioritizes keeping members safe and engaged in treatment at all costs. Flexibility, empathy, and commitment to member success are critical attributes for a successful Senior Staff Provider. You will also provide longitudinal maintenance care to a panel of members. Additionally, you will support your regular provider colleagues by providing coverage when medical questions or needs arise, and these providers are unavailable.
