COMPANY PROFILE:
Geriatric primary care practice serving assisted and independent living facilities (ALFs/ILFs) and private homes throughout several states. The practice was founded and is led by a physician with 15+ years of experience in the home-based primary care field. They employ a team of more than 20 talented physicians and nurse practitioners, who are supported by dedicated clinical and administrative team members.



POSITION DESCRIPTION:
The new physician will serve as the primary care provider for a dedicated panel of geriatric patients. Full-time clinical physicians hold panels of 200 to 225 patients. This number is adjusted proportionally for part-time physicians.

The practice believes strongly in proactive medicine, with a clinical focus on:

- preventative care
- chronic disease management
- medication management
- other geriatric care needs

Physicians typically see patients on a monthly basis, but this can be adjusted per physician request and patient need.

Physicians travel to 1 or 2 buildings each day (ALFs / ILFs), with house call visits scheduled as travel and locations allow (house calls are negotiable).

Full-time clinical providers perform 50 to 55 visits per week (this is adjusted for part-time physicians), with each day’s schedule being carefully crafted to factor in travel time, new patients vs. established patients, etc.

Physicians use the GEHRIMED electronic health record (a mobile-based platform specialized to this type of work) and communicate with their office-based support team remotely.

Providers evenly share on-call responsibilities. The current rotation is 1 week every 4-5 months and this decreases as providers are hired. On-call is phone triage only and volume is light. On-call is flexible/negotiable for part-time providers.



REQUIREMENTS:
- Tennessee medical license
- DEA
- Board Certification or Eligibility, relevant field
- no experience required; recent graduates are welcome to apply
