Job description

About Matter Health

Matter Health delivers primary and preventive healthcare directly to Medicare-eligible adults living in affordable housing communities. Our mission is simple: to improve healthcare access by meeting patients where they are and building trusted relationships within the communities we serve.

As we rapidly expand across the country, we are seeking mission-driven professionals who thrive in fast-paced, people-centered environments.

We Lead with Love in Everything We Do.

About the Role

Matter Health is seeking a Nurse Practitioner to provide community-based primary care in Nashville, Tennessee.

At Matter Health, our NPs are more than just providers. They are Panel Owners. In this role, you will manage a dedicated panel of patients as their ongoing primary care provider, building strong, lasting relationships within the communities you serve.

This is a fully community-based position with no traditional clinic home base. Nurse Practitioners work with a high degree of clinical autonomy while collaborating closely with an interdisciplinary care team and a dedicated Medical Director for support in complex cases.

Key Responsibilities

• Provide ongoing primary and preventive care to adult patients living in affordable housing communities

• Manage and grow a dedicated patient panel within assigned communities

• Deliver relationship-driven, patient-centered care in community and in-home settings

• Collaborate with interdisciplinary clinical and operational teams

• Support initiatives in preventive care, chronic disease management, and care coordination

• Use a combination of telehealth and in-person care delivery to improve accessibility

• Maintain accurate, timely EHR documentation and ensure coding specificity

Qualifications

• Active, unrestricted Tennessee Nurse Practitioner license, or the ability to obtain one before your start date

• Tennessee Certificate of Fitness to prescribe, or the ability to obtain one before your start date

• National board certification as a Nurse Practitioner through AANPCB or ANCC in family, adult, geriatric, or adult-gerontology

• Active DEA registration, or the ability to obtain one before your start date

• 3+ years of clinical experience as a Nurse Practitioner, preferably with medically complex adult or geriatric populations

• Basic Life Support (BLS) certification

• Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation, with monthly travel stipend provided

• Experience with EHR documentation, preferably athenahealth

• Commitment to equitable, patient-centered care

Strongly Preferred

• Background in family medicine, internal medicine, adult medicine, or geriatrics

• Experience in value-based care settings

• Experience providing care in community-based, in-home, or other non-traditional healthcare environments

• Experience supporting patients with behavioral health needs alongside chronic conditions

• Familiarity with MEAT documentation and chronic condition coding

• Telehealth experience

This is not just our mission. It is our daily work.

We Lead with Love in Everything We Do.
