Job description

Practice Medicine With Purpose—And a Team Beside You

Practice medicine with time, teamwork, and real impact. As a Physician in our PACE program, you’ll care for older adults with complex needs through relationship-based primary care—partnering with an Interdisciplinary Team and meeting participants where they are (in the center, at home, virtually, or in skilled nursing settings). This is whole-person, value-based care built around dignity, coordination, and helping people stay healthier at home.

What Does Success Look Like As A Physician?
Lead within a collaborative IDT model: Serve as a member of the IDT, completing assessments, participating in care planning, and reviewing Service Determination Requests.
Provide longitudinal primary care: Deliver direct primary medical care to PACE participants—including histories and physicals—while actively growing and managing a panel in close collaboration with a Complex Care RN.
Drive clinical decision-making: Initiate, evaluate, review, and close orders for medications, diagnostics, referrals, and treatments.
Treat participants across settings: Evaluate and treat participants in the center, at home, virtually, in SNFs, and other settings as needed.
Coordinate whole-person care: Liaise with Behavioral Health, Pharmacy, and other IDT members to coordinate care that’s clinically sound and person-centered.
Support hospital transitions: Support participants through hospital admissions—overseeing inpatient management, updating the IDT, leveraging consultants as needed, and supporting safe discharge planning.
Support SNF transitions: Facilitate nursing home admissions, conduct in-person assessments, coordinate with SNF staff and the IDT, and support safe discharge when appropriate.
Teach and empower: Educate team members, participants, and caregivers on medical care plans, medications, and next steps.
Ensure appropriate specialty care: Initiate referrals to specialists and approve return appointments as clinically appropriate.
Perform procedures within competency: Perform selected in-office procedures for which competencies are met.
Document clearly and on time: Document all participant interactions, assessments, and action items in the EMR within specified timeframes.
Support accurate risk adjustment: Engage with documentation specialists for HCC medical coding capture.
