Physician / Family Practice / Maryland / Permanent / Somerset County FP Maryland Partnership Job

An opportunity for selected Family Physicians to OWN your independent advanced primary care practice in a waterfront community WITHOUT a financial buy-in : We are frustrated and saddened to see the steady decline of independent primary care. We see that the reasons behind that decline; the large debt incurred during training, the complexity of establishing an independent practice, and the paucity of role models for independent practice during training. But we are at a tipping point in the delivery and payment of primary care in this nation and it is the right time to take fresh approaches to bringing back strong, independent primary care. As a result of a generous grant from the State of Maryland under the EQIP-PC program we are offering an opportunity for two (2) family Practice physicians to provide comprehensive care to a medically underserved rural population on the southern shores of the Chesapeake Bay in a newly established fully equipped office. The intent of this program is to offer a chance for Family Physicians, and graduating FP residents to reclaim independent primary care as an attractive and viable option and serve as a model for similar programs in the future. The new practice will feature state of the art health information technology, linkage to the state health information exchange (CRISP), inclusion and support in the Maryland Primary Care Program and the AHEAD model, inclusion in Marylands Medicaid Advanced Primary Care payment model and coordination with the county health department and other community-based organizations.The practice includes RN Care management, Community Health Workers, part time clinical pharmacist, and certified medical assistants. The practice will also have 3 Advanced Practice Providers working within team-based care units.This opportunity will allow the new providers to become the owners of the practice, be eligible for loan repayment and have a competitive salary and benefits. The opportunity is configured so that the selected provider(s) would not be required to make a financial contribution to establish ownership of the practice and facilities. The newly established practice is debt free and owns all of the property and equipment. The ownership opportunity is tied to the Physicians commitment to serve the community.The practice anticipates opening in Summer of 2025 in a state-of-the-art facility in Crisfield, Maryland to join Dr Haft. This practice has purchased 2.6 acres of land for this new major practice and as a reminder the Physician(s) who join the practice will become the owners of the practice, building and property simply by vesting in without a financial buy-in. Also, the City of Crisfield is enthusiastically welcoming the practice and in addition, they have obtained very favorable contracts with the areas largest commercial payer ( CareFirst BC / BS) as well as with Medicaid and Medicare.I hope you can share your CV so we can connect?
