Job Description

Job Overview

Our organization is among the largest and rapidly 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 wholly owned subsidiary that is independent of any payor, we prioritize the unique needs of seniors in all our operations. Our clinics utilize a collaborative care model, where physicians lead a diverse team dedicated to enhancing patients' physical, emotional, and social well-being.

The Primary Care Physician (PCP) serves as a pivotal leader within our collaborative care framework. We are committed to delivering high-quality care to our patients. Our care team includes physicians, advanced practice professionals, pharmacists, care coach nurses, medical assistants, behavioral health specialists, quality coders, referral coordinators, and more. This integrated approach enables us to offer an unparalleled experience for seniors, focusing on high-quality care and improved outcomes through a concierge service model, multidisciplinary offerings, coordinated care backed by analytics, and strong community ties.
