Job description

Accompany Health is on a mission to give patients with complex needs the dignified, high-quality care they deserve but rarely receive. A primary, behavioral, and social care provider, Accompany Health walks alongside patients for their entire care journey, offering at-home and virtual care, as well as 24/7 support. Partnering with innovative payors, Accompany Health is powered by remarkable care teams, elegant technology, and a commitment to evidence-based practice.
We build long-term relationships with our patients so they know, without question, that our team is here for them day or night, year after year. We focus on the health outcomes most important to our patients to make it clear that they lead the way.
To achieve our mission, we collaborate with community-based organizations, local providers, and health plans. Led by our empathetic care teams, guided by proven care models, and powered by our own technology, we deliver a level of service that our communities rightfully deserve but rarely receive.
While our headquarters is in Bethesda, MD, our teams are distributed across the country.If you’re eager to make a tangible difference in people’s lives, to help correct long-standing disparities in health care, join us.

About the role:

We’re seeking a Med-Psych Advanced Practice Clinician (APC) who thrives in a dynamic, collaborative environment and is eager to deliver high-quality care across both medical and behavioral health domains. The ideal candidate brings clinical expertise in primary care and psychiatric management—comfortable managing complex, comorbid patients in virtual settings.

As a Med-Psychiatric Advanced Practice Clinician, you will serve patients in our High Risk Advanced Behavioral Health Model in a BH-first model as their longitudinal provider with the primary goal of keeping our patients healthy at home. Our High Risk Advanced BH patients are those who have Serious Mental Illness (SMI) and/or Substance Use Disorder (SUD) and often also have co-occurring complex chronic medical conditions who have high risk of hospital and ED utilization for either or both medical and psychiatric reasons. You will work as a part of a multidisciplinary team consisting of supervising med-psychiatric physicians, behavioral health clinicians (LCSW/LPC), and health advocates who have BH expertise. With your team, you’ll provide longitudinal care and build trusted relationships with your patients—delivering care virtually and often facilitated by an in-home BH-trained health advocate. You’ll diagnose and manage chronic psychiatric and medical conditions, ensure evidence-based preventive care, address urgent needs, and identify and help overcome any barriers or obstacles to their health.

This role is ideal for an APC who embraces innovation, values autonomy, and wants to help shape clinical models that merge technology, compassion, and evidence-based practice.
