Job description

ESSENTIAL JOB DUTIES/RESPONSIBILITIES

The PCP independently provides care for patients with acute and chronic illnesses encountered in the older adult population, taking full accountability for patient care and outcomes. The PCP will seek consultation from specialists when needed while remaining involved in the detailed care of the patient. It is expected that the PCP will engage with the hospitalist whenever the patient is hospitalized, regardless of the hospitalist’s affiliation with ChenMed. The PCP is responsible for assessment, diagnosis, treatment, management, education, health promotion, care coordination, and documentation for patients with acute and complex chronic health needs. The PCP leads a care team that includes a care promoter (medical assistant), care facilitator, and care coordinator for patients able to come to the office. For patients unable to attend the office—whether in hospital, SNF, LTC, or homebound—the PCP will engage with the transitional care team, case managers, acute and transitional‑care physicians, and other resources available in the market. The PCP also plays an active role in center management, covers for other providers when needed, and assists in recruiting patients and additional providers. The PCP supervises, collaborates with, participates with, or functions within a collaborative agreement with an Advanced Practice Practitioner (APP), remaining accountable for the APP’s actions while employed by the company. The PCP performs other duties as assigned and modified at the manager’s discretion.
