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. POSITION SUMMARY 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 and clinical leaders that are seeking to fulfill purpose and personal opportunity and join the ChenMed family. The Lead, Primary Care Physician (Lead, PCP) is the initial step in the clinical leadership track at ChenMed; the Lead PCP will demonstrate: Accountability for outcomes: The Lead PCP demonstrates accountability for outcomes, strong clinical care, and cost‑effectiveness for each patient in their panel of at least 360 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 Lead 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 Lead 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. Leadership: Leads Super Huddle (SH) and Transforming Care Meeting (TCM) weekly, as well as supports Center Manager/Center General Manager if the center clinical leader and/or market clinical leader is *not* available. The Lead PCP will fill in as needed for center clinical leadership needs, including monitoring daily center census as part of joint center accountability for outcomes. Drive a positive culture that supports a cohesive team approach, drives excellent results and relationships, and promotes "best place to work" culture measured by employee engagement scores. We are an outcomes‑focused, value‑based organization and for their panel of patients, the following metrics are regularly measured to help Lead PCPs become successful and become successful PCP Partners: patient admissions/thousand, 16‑18 appointment slots per day at a 0.9 FTE PCP schedule / 0.1 FTE dedicated leadership time (each new patient count for 2 slots, follow‑up patients, typical 1.0 PCP FTE slots are 18‑21), HEDIS>4, CG CAHPS (patient experience), clinical gaps closures, and medical cost effectiveness relative to center target. Each Lead 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 uhour they are expected to help champion a positive culture of love, accountability, and passion along with center leadership. The Lead PCP will be required to demonstrate the ability to function both independently and in collaboration with other health care professionals. The Lead PCP will work closely with the applicable center and market leadership 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 Lead PCP will adhere to strict departmental goals/objectives, standards of performance, regulatory compliance, quality patient care compliance, and policies and procedures.
