Concert Health is a mission-driven behavioral health medical group delivering evidence-based care through primary care partnerships across the country. As the nation’s leading provider of Collaborative Care, we’ve supported nearly 120,000 patients—and we continue to advance the model through research, innovation, and a commitment to clinical excellence.

Job Summary

Reporting to the National Medical Director, the Psychiatric Consultant supports the collaborative care team—primary care provider, patient, and Behavioral Health Care Manager—through Structured Case Review (SCR) on an assigned caseload of patients. The psychiatric consultant advises the primary care provider on appropriate medications and other treatment strategies, also providing the care team with educational support on diagnosing and managing behavioral health conditions.

Concert’s Psychiatric Consultants also collaborate closely with clinical leadership at multiple major health west coast health systems to train, support and delight their primary teams (PCPs, Pediatricians, OBGYN, & more) via in-service training for primary care-based providers and staff regarding recognition and treatment of behavioral health conditions in primary care.

Duties and Responsibilities:

• Provide Structured Care Review (SCR) to primary care providers through systematic case review with a panel of Behavioral Health Care Manager (average of 32 PC review hours per week and 6 to 10 patient reviews per hour). Focus primarily on high-risk patients, patients new to treatment, or those not improving
• Work with Behavioral Health Care Manager to oversee the status and population health of their assigned patient caseload. The Psychiatric Consultant uses Concert’s purpose built registry to track all assigned patients and prioritize patients for case review and treatment adjustments
• Recommend any treatment adjustments, including specific medication and lab/imaging/study order recommendations, directly in the primary care provider’s EHR
• Educate primary care providers and Behavioral Health Care Manager about treatment options, supporting both of their professional development and improving patient care at scale
• Advise on treatment for patients who may need more intensive or more specialized mental health care, supporting treatment in the medical setting until patients can be engaged in specialized care as appropriate (treat to transition)
• Be available to provide occasional ad hoc telephone consultation to primary care providers for very complex patients or challenging patient situations. Respond to telephone calls from primary care providers and Behavioral Health Care Manager within one business day. Aim to respond to urgent telephone calls within one hour
• Enjoy and thrive in supporting busy primary care providers to better identify and treat common mental health disorders through systemic, measurement-based care
• Can quickly synthesize psychiatric and general medical history, presentation, and patient data; then formulate effective and evidence-based clinical recommendations
• Proficiency in evidence-based pharmacological treatment approaches to common psychiatric disorders, with demonstrated experience in navigating complex comorbid general medical conditions when choosing an appropriate medication regimen
• Current with evidence based suicide care and related tools and treatments with general safety assessment and planning approaches using standardized assessment tools and interventions (e.g. C-SSRS and Stanley Brown)
• Comfort incorporating evidence-based treatment frameworks and approaches (e.g., Problem-Solving Treatment, Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Skills, Dialectic Behavioral Therapy Skills, Behavioral Activation) into treatment planning
• Experience using Measurement Based Care tools (e.g. PHQ-9, GAD-7) to track populations and guide care decisions
• Enjoy providing coaching on, and learning about, evidence-based interventions to support the professional development of primary care providers and Behavioral Health Care Manager
• Experience practicing/collaborating in primary care or integrated care settings
• Experience in “treat to target” models and Collaborative Care model
• Excellent organizational, multi-tasking, detail management, and communication skills
• Excellent decision-making, problem-solving, analytical, and interpretive thinking skills
• Ability to establish and preserve effective working relationships with patients/Behavioral Health Care Manager, and primary providers
• Ability to manage conflict and high-pressure situations in a professional manner
• Ability to adapt to changing patient or organizational priorities
• Ability to make independent decisions in accordance with established policies/procedures
• Technical proficiency in EHRs (e.g., Epic, Cerner), Salesforce, Google Suite, and Zoom

Qualifications:

• MD or DO degree with active, unrestricted medical license in MA.
• Additional state licenses and/or willingness to acquire additional licenses preferred.
• Board certification in Psychiatry required; subspecialty certification (e.g., Child & Adolescent, Addiction, Geriatric) or demonstrated subspecialty experience (e.g., Women’s Health) highly desired.
• Minimum 3 years of post-residency clinical experience.

Schedule:

• Full-time 40 hours/week | Monday through Friday
• Remote position, but with ability to travel (1-2 times per quarter) to clinic areas for quarterly business reviews and clinic on-sites when needed

• Fully remote work environment
• A supportive and inclusive culture
