Job description

TSG Health & Wellness (The Ship Group Services LLC) | North Carolina (Remote/Telehealth)

Position Type: PRN / As-Needed (W-2).

Schedule: 1–2 days per week (consistent weekly block); opportunity to expand as volume grows.

Pay: $45–$50/hour (scheduled, patient-facing clinic time; based on experience).

Location: Remote (must be licensed/eligible to practice in North Carolina).

About TSG Health & Wellness:

TSG Health & Wellness is a growing telehealth program under The Ship Group Services LLC, built to deliver integrated medical + behavioral health support for Medicaid and underserved communities. We collaborate closely with our behavioral health team to provide whole-person care—primary care visits, behavioral health screening, medication management, and coordinated referrals.

Position Summary:

We’re looking for a dependable, clinically strong Physician Assistant to provide telehealth primary care and medication management within an integrated care environment. This PRN role is ideal for a PA who enjoys structured workflows, is comfortable working independently, and has some exposure to behavioral health presentations commonly seen in primary care (depression/anxiety, sleep issues, trauma-related symptoms, substance use history, etc.).

Key Responsibilities:

• Conduct telehealth visits for common primary care needs (acute + chronic conditions).
• Provide medication management and follow-up care when clinically appropriate.

Use screening tools (e.g., PHQ-9/GAD-7) and coordinate with behavioral health clinicians as needed.

• Order/review labs and diagnostics within scope and payer requirements.
• Document accurately and timely in the EHR (same day preferred; within 24 hours required).
• Provide warm handoffs and clinically appropriate referrals to behavioral health/community supports.
• Maintain compliance with telehealth standards, privacy requirements, and internal clinical protocols.

What We Handle (So You Can Focus on Patient Care):

We intentionally remove the admin load that slows providers down:

• Intake coordination (demographics, insurance verification, required forms/consents).
• Scheduling, reminders, and non-clinical follow-ups.
• Chart prep (pharmacy confirmation, medication list collection, organizing uploaded documents).
• Referral logistics and administrative coordination.
• Supervising MD support in place + clear escalation pathway.
• Clinical templates/workflows to support efficient documentation.
• No patient acquisition responsibility — we handle marketing and intake workflow to keep the schedule moving.

Requirements:

• Active North Carolina PA license in good standing
• Must be able to prescribe and manage medications within scope, including e-prescribing and PDMP requirements when applicable
• Strong documentation habits and comfort using EHR/telehealth platforms
• Reliable internet + private workspace suitable for telehealth
• Primary care/urgent care/family medicine experience preferred
• Behavioral health experience/exposure preferred (integrated care, community health, depression/anxiety screening, substance use history, etc.)

Compensation & Growth:

• $45–$50/hour (W-2 PRN) for scheduled, patient-facing clinic time (based on experience).
• 1–2 consistent clinic days/week to start; opportunity to expand as volume grows.
• Compensation review at 6 months based on program growth, volume, and quality metrics.
• Optional growth path into a Lead APP role as the program scales (for candidates who want leadership).

Benefits:

Flexible schedule.

License/Certification:

North Carolina Physician Assistant (PA) license (Required).

DEA registration (Required).

Work Location: Remote
