Ready to get off the HMO Treadmill? Join California Correctional Health Care Services (CCHCS) and find like-minded, dedicated primary care physicians who've left the HMO Treadmill behind.

Immediately Hiring At The Following Facilities:

• Central California Women's Facility (Chowchilla, CA)
• Correctional Training Facility (Soledad, CA)
• Centinela State Prison (Imperial, CA - near El Centro)

About the Position

Within a structured, multidisciplinary team, provide primary care that may include treatment related to:

• Routine Preventative Care

Here, physicians have access to the tools needed for successful delivery of care, including:

• Expansive Drug Formulary
• Comprehensive Care Guides
• Referrals to Specialty Care and Services
• Strong Nursing Teams
• Expansive Allied Health Services

But, most important are what CCHCS physicians don’t have:

• Insurance, Worker’s Comp, and Disability paperwork
• Unrealistic patient volume – most primary care physicians see fewer patients per day than their private sector/HMO colleagues and are able to take the time they need for appointments
• Missed time with friends and family – with a 40-hour workweek, CCHCS physicians are able to care for patients and themselves

Minimum Qualifications
