• Document all patient encounters in the VA electronic health record within 24 hours of the clinical encounter.
• Coordinate with each Veteran's other treating providers regarding genetic testing, follow-up, and ongoing management.
• Maintain board certification, meet CME requirements, and practice within scope of privileges at all times.
• Complete VA credentialing, privileging, and mandatory training requirements, and comply with VA telework and security protocols.

Qualifications & Experience

• Board Certified or Board Eligible in Clinical Genetics by the American Board of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ABMGG).
• Current Basic Life Support (BLS) certification or equivalent.
• Able to obtain VA PIV credentialing/security clearance (application submitted week 1; 2–3 weeks typical adjudication).
