Job Description

Job Overview

Our organization is among the largest and fastest expanding providers of value-based, senior-focused primary care in the nation, with numerous centers across eight states operating under two distinct brands. As a payor-agnostic, wholly owned subsidiary, we prioritize the unique needs of seniors in all our operations. Our clinics utilize a collaborative care model where physicians lead a multidisciplinary team dedicated to enhancing the physical, emotional, and social well-being of our patients.

The Primary Care Physician (PCP) serves as a pivotal leader within our collaborative care framework. We emphasize quality care for our patients, supported by a diverse team that includes doctors, advanced practice professionals, pharmacists, care coach nurses, medical assistants, behavioral health specialists, quality coders, and referral coordinators. This integrated approach enables us to deliver an exceptional experience for seniors, focusing on high-quality care and improved outcomes through a concierge service model, coordinated care, and strong community ties. This comprehensive support allows our PCPs to manage fewer patients, dedicating more time to each individual.
