Job Description:
We’re unique. You should be, too. We’re changing lives every
day. For both our patients and our team members. Are you innovative
and entrepreneurial minded? Is your work ethic and ambition off the
charts? Do you inspire others with your kindness and joy? We’re
different than most primary care providers. We’re rapidly expanding
and we need great people to join our team. ChenMed, a physician-led
and mission-driven, primary care organization, is currently one of
the most successful full-risk Medicare Advantage providers in the
nation and has a vision to be America’s leading primary care
provider, transforming care of the neediest population. Our mission
is to honor seniors with affordable VIP care that delivers better
health. In order to achieve our vision and deliver our mission, we
need the best primary care providers that are seeking to fulfill
purpose and personal opportunity and join the ChenMed family. The
Primary Care Physician (PCP) in our organization demonstrates: •
Accountability for outcomes: The PCP demonstrates accountability
for outcomes, strong clinical care, and cost-effectiveness for each
patient in their panel of up to 450 patients. They understand that
they can strongly influence the patient’s outcomes by building a
trusting relationship and helping them change behaviors. • Coaching
for health: The PCP acts as a health coach, rather than just a
consultant for sickness, by helping patients set short and
long-term health goals, partners with the patient to work toward
the goals, and frequently follows up on those goals on the path to
improved health for their patients. • Simplifying for action: The
PCP simplifies and prioritizes appropriately so that behavior
change is more actionable, both for the patient in helping them
achieve their goals, and when leading their care teams towards
their performance goals. We are an outcomes-focused, value-based
organization and for their panel of patients, the following metrics
are regularly measured to help PCP’s become successful and reach
partnership status: patient admissions/thousand, using between
18-21 appointment slots per day (each new patient count for 2
slots, follow-up patients 1 slot), CGCAHPS (patient experience),
clinical gaps closures, and medical cost measures. Each PCP will
have goals for these metrics and will be expected to work towards
those targets with their center and market leadership as well as
their care teams. Culture is very important in the medical centers
and because PCP’s are leaders in our organization and centers, they
are expected to help champion a positive culture of love,
accountability, and passion along with center leadership. The PCP
will be required to demonstrate the ability to function both
independently and in collaboration with other health care
professionals. The PCP will work closely with the applicable
managers and medical directors to ensure compliance with guidelines
along with participating in risk and quality management programs,
clinical meetings and other meetings as required that promote
patient health and company goals. The PCP will adhere to strict
departmental goals/objectives, standards of performance, regulatory
compliance, quality patient care compliance, and policies and
procedures. ESSENTIAL JOB DUTIES/RESPONSIBILITIES: The PCP
independently provides care for patients with acute and chronic
illnesses encountered in the older adult patient. The PCP will take
full accountability for patient care and outcomes and will
appropriately seek consultation from specialists when needed,
though will still stay involved in, and be responsible for, the
detailed care of the patient. It is expected that the PCP will
engage with the hospitalist whenever one of their patients is in
the hospital (regardless of whether the hospitalist works for
ChenMed or not). The PCP is responsible for assessment, diagnosis,
treatment, management, education, health promotion and care
coordination and documentation for patients with acute and complex
chronic health needs. The PCP leads their care team consisting of
care promoter (medical assistant), care facilitator, and care
coordinator for patients able to come to the office. For patients
that are unable to come to the office—in hospital, SNF, LTC or
homebound, PCP will engage with the transitional care team and
others including case managers, acute and transitional-care
physicians, and other resources that may be available depending on
the market. PCP will have an active role in the management of their
center and will help cover for other providers who may be out for
various reasons. It is also expected that each PCP will take an
active role as needed in recruiting patients for the center and
additional providers for the company. Performs other duties as
assigned and modified at manager’s discretion. EDUCATION AND
