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, Partner (PCPP) in our organization
demonstrates: • Accountability for outcomes: The PCPP demonstrates
accountability for outcomes, strong clinical care, and
cost-effectiveness for each patient in their risk adjusted panel of
at least 400 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 PCPP 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
PCPP 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 PCPPs become and remain successful
in 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 PCPP 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 PCPP
will be required to demonstrate the ability to function both
independently and in collaboration with other health care
professionals. The PCPP 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 PCPP 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 PCPP

illnesses encountered in the older adult patient. - The PCPP will

patients that are unable to come to the office—in hospital, SNF,
LTC or homebound, PCPPs 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. - PCPP 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 market. - Supervises, collaborates

evidence-based medicine, but also recognizes that factors outside
of traditional medicine, like lifestyle and nutrition, have a large
impact on patient health outcomes. The PCPP stays up to date on
clinical, nutritional, and lifestyle based interventions to improve
outcomes. - Physician Leadership is integral to good healthcare, so
the PCPP must be willing to continuously work to develop and
improve leadership skills for the benefit of one’s patients, their
team, their center and the company. - Quality — Our patients
deserve the highest quality of care. This requires a willingness to
work with the care teams towards achieving high quality outcomes
and quality measures. At the same time, PCPPs will always be
looking for ways to continuously and systematically improve their
practice of medicine and the operations of their center. -
Influence — PCPPs must competently and compassionately influence
their patients, their teams, and themselves to achieve the best
outcomes. - Self-Care — A PCPP can take the best care for their
patients when they are adequately caring for themselves. That means
physically, mentally, socially and spiritually. Physician wellness
is important for sustainability and promoting the health of
physicians, staff, and patients. - Proficient in Microsoft Office
