Job at a glance
Job description
Looking for an Infectious Disease opportunity that fits around your existing practice rather than competing with it?
Golden Valley Memorial Healthcare is seeking a Board-Certified or Board-Eligible Infectious Disease Physician interested in providing flexible inpatient consult coverage through telemedicine. This is an excellent opportunity for a physician who would like to supplement an existing practice, maintain clinical involvement while transitioning toward retirement, or add a small number of consults each month without committing to a traditional clinic schedule.
A Flexible Opportunity Built Around Your Schedule
Our primary need is inpatient Infectious Disease consultation provided remotely using Teladoc technology. The current consult volume is very manageable, with approximately 11 new consults and 11 follow-up visits per month based on recent volume.
Scheduling can be structured around your existing commitments, including the option for evening availability.
Opportunity Highlights
- 100% telemedicine Infectious Disease consults
- Primarily inpatient consultation coverage
- Low, manageable consult volume
- Flexible scheduling designed around your existing practice
- Evening availability can be accommodated
- Independent contractor arrangement
- Teladoc technology for remote patient consultations
- Dedicated nursing support available during consults
- 24/7 hospitalist coverage to manage patients based on your recommendations
- Outpatient infusion services available for patients requiring IV antibiotic therapy
- Meditech Expanse electronic medical record
- Optional opportunity to provide outpatient Infectious Disease visits via telemedicine
What We’re Looking For
We are seeking an Infectious Disease physician who values flexibility, collaboration and the ability to practice without adding a significant time commitment to an already busy schedule.
Candidates should be Board Certified or Board Eligible in Infectious Disease and be eligible for medical licensure and credentialing in Missouri.
Let's Build a Schedule That Works for You
Whether you are actively practicing full-time, looking for a supplemental opportunity, or beginning to scale back your clinical practice, we would welcome the opportunity to discuss how this role could fit your schedule.
