Job description

About Steadfast Health

Steadfast Health was founded to establish a new standard of substance use disorder (SUD) care. Recognizing that traditional treatment methods often fall short of reaching patients when they’re most in need, Steadfast is relentlessly focused on making low-barrier, high-quality care accessible to all.

We provide Office-Based Addiction Treatment (OBAT), Medication for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD), and Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) level services, allowing patients to receive medical care and structured therapeutic support in one coordinated setting.

We know the journey to recovery is unique for every individual. Our patient-centered approach meets patients where they are, providing evidence‑based treatment with unwavering support in a compassionate environment that fosters healing and growth.

We are growing rapidly and building a dedicated team of professionals committed to fulfilling our mission. Join us!

About The Role

We’re looking for an experienced Advanced Practice Provider (NP or PA) to join Steadfast Health in a 100% virtual position, providing high-quality, evidence-based addiction medicine care through telehealth.

This is an opportunity to practice at the top of your license within a supportive, multidisciplinary care model while helping Steadfast expand access to treatment across the communities we serve.

As a Virtual APP, you’ll provide medical and/or psychiatric evaluation and management for patients with substance use disorders while collaborating closely with therapists, nursing, peer recovery specialists, clinic teams, and medical leadership. A Medical Director is available for collaborating physician support.

You’ll have structured workflows, manageable patient panels, dedicated support, and protected time for care coordination and administrative work. We offer CME funding, mentorship, and leadership opportunities within a sustainable work environment built to support both excellent patient care and work‑life balance.

This position is fully remote with no regular in‑clinic requirement. Candidates must reside in Ohio, Tennessee, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Texas, New York, or Pennsylvania.

Because this role is designed to support patients across multiple Steadfast markets, preference will be given to candidates who are already licensed in Tennessee, Ohio, and North Carolina.

A day in the life

• Schedule: Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., with a daily morning team huddle. No nights or weekends.
• 100% virtual care: Patient visits are conducted remotely through telehealth.
• Protected midday break: A one‑hour block in the middle of the day.
• Patient visits: Initial visits are typically 60 minutes; follow‑up visits are typically 20 minutes.
• Manageable panel: Maximum caseload of approximately 80–100 patients, allowing you to build meaningful relationships and deliver thoughtful, individualized care.
• Collaborative care: Work virtually alongside clinical and operational team members to coordinate treatment, discuss patient needs, and ensure continuity of care.
• Documentation support: Technology and streamlined workflows help reduce administrative burden so you can focus more of your time and energy on patients.

Why Steadfast?

• Medical, dental, and vision insurance, plus 100% employer-paid short‑ and long‑term disability and life insurance
• 401(k) with up to 5% company match
• 29 days off a year to start, including PTO, floating holidays, and paid volunteer days, increasing on your anniversary, plus 4 Re‑Fuel Days annually for mental health, rest, or CEU activities
• $2,000 annual CEU stipend and ongoing paid training
• Free, confidential EAP access to therapy, legal, financial, and wellness resources
• Protected time built into your day for recharging, team huddles, care planning, and administrative work
• Collaborative multidisciplinary care model with physician backup and manageable patient panels, allowing you to practice at the top of your license
• Extra perks including SoFi student loan interest rate discounts, Rightway Health Concierge, a year of free pet telehealth through Pawp, and the Perkspot discount marketplace
• Soulside AI documentation support, because your energy belongs with patients, not paperwork
• We believe lived experience with recovery is a strength, not a barrier. Many members of our team bring personal or family experience with addiction and recovery, and we welcome candidates in recovery to apply.
• Ground‑floor opportunity to help shape how Steadfast delivers exceptional virtual addiction care as we continue to grow

Background

• NP (FNP, AGNP, or PMHNP preferred) or PA‑C, with Internal Medicine, Family Medicine, Emergency Medicine, behavioral health, or addiction medicine experience preferred
• Minimum of 2+ years of clinical experience as a provider, ideally in an outpatient setting
• Comprehensive medical and/or psychiatric evaluation and management experience in substance use disorder treatment, preferably in an outpatient environment
• Experience providing telehealth care strongly preferred
• Demonstrated ability to work independently and confidently manage a full patient panel with minimal ramp‑up time
• Strong knowledge of SUD diagnoses, medications, and evidence-based treatment modalities
• Comfortable assessing patients remotely and determining when a patient requires a higher level of care, emergency intervention, or in‑person evaluation
• Ability to collaborate effectively with multidisciplinary teams in a virtual environment
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, a flexible, can‑do mentality, and a commitment to continuous learning and professional development
• Passionate about Steadfast Health’s mission to provide low‑barrier, non‑punitive, harm‑reduction‑oriented SUD care

Licensure & location requirements

• Must be appropriately licensed and clinically eligible to practice as an NP or PA. An active Tennessee license is required. Preference will be given to candidates who also hold active licenses in Ohio and North Carolina.
• Must reside in one of the following states: Florida, Georgia, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, or Texas
• Ability and willingness to maintain required professional licenses, certifications, and credentialing necessary to provide telehealth care in assigned patient markets with administrative and financial support from Steadfast.

Remote work requirements

This is a 100% virtual position. Team members must maintain a professional, private workspace suitable for confidential patient care and reliable internet connectivity sufficient to conduct video visits, participate in virtual team meetings, and access electronic health record and communication systems throughout the workday.

Physical requirements

• Ability to remain in a stationary position for extended periods while conducting virtual patient visits, charting, and collaborating with team members
• Ability to operate a computer, phone, webcam, headset, and other standard remote‑office equipment throughout the workday
• Visual acuity and manual dexterity sufficient to use electronic health record and telehealth systems
• Ability to communicate clearly and effectively by video and phone, including during emotionally charged, urgent, or crisis situations

Location

100% Remote. Candidates must reside in OH, TN, NC, GA, FL, TX, NY, or PA.
