Family Practice - Geriatrics Physician at Signify Health summary :

As a Geriatrics Physician with Signify Health, you will conduct In-home Health Evaluations for patients enrolled in Medicare Advantage and Medicaid programs. Your role focuses on understanding the health and living conditions of patients in their own homes through detailed conversations and evaluations, without prescribing medications. This position offers flexibility, competitive compensation, and an opportunity to forge meaningful relationships with patients as they navigate their healthcare needs.

Are you interested in working flexible hours, connecting with people one-on-one, and helping them re-engage with their health? At Signify Health, part of CVS Health , our mission is to build trusted relationships to make people healthier.

We re hiring physician (MD / DO) contractors to conduct In-home Health Evaluations for Medicare Advantage, Medicaid, and certain commercial plan members.

These visits include a medication and medical history review, as well as a physical evaluation performed in a health plan member s home. Our physician contractors can earn a competitive wage (or supplement their current income) while managing other personal and clinical commitments. You will be provided a pre-populated, patient-specific form for each evaluation, and do not prescribe medicine, order lab tests, or alter people s current treatment regimen.

This is an excellent opportunity for resident physicians to earn additional income or for more seasoned physicians seeking a change of pace.

Making a Difference - what physicians say about working with Signify Health

• Many of the people I see are shocked a physician is coming to their home to visit with them one-on-one. When you sit down and have an unhurried conversation about their health, they are impressed, happy, and understand that their health plan and care team cares about them. - Marcie L., M.D., Arizona
• The primary care physician gets a snapshot of a person in an office setting, but with Signify Health, we see things like the number of steps to enter their home, the state of disrepair those steps may be in, and the person s ability to function comfortably and with ease in their own home. We can make referrals to the individual s health plan, encourage the participation of their loved ones, and ensure their PCPs are aware of their health and overall quality of life. - Cathy H., M.D., Kentucky
