We seek forward thinking Physician Assistants who may already be planning for a time when North Carolina grants full scope of practice rights to Physician Assistants. WellCraft Health is a supportive home for those who have become frustrated with what the medical system has become. Direct pay medical practices are the wave of the future. Over 2,400 medical practices in the US are now direct pay medical practices who have rejected the health insurance driven model of medical care.

Special Notes :

The nature of primary care medicine has changed. Nearly 50% of ALL primary care physicians will be at or beyond retirement age within FIVE years. The shortage of primary care physicians is so severe that North Carolina is highly likely to implement full practice rights, without mandatory physician supervision, as they have in other states like Virginia.

WellCraft Heath is a GREAT way to GET AHEAD of this inevitable development. Love your profession, have easier hours, and earn MUCH BETTER compensation. Direct primary care is the future of primary care for medical professionals that want to offer their patients Better medical care and More responsive service.

We plan to implement a four day work week WITHOUT twelve hour days. There is no place better to build your career and future earnings than WellCraft Health. It is definitely worth a phone call or email inquiry.
