The work you do here impacts the lives of millions of people for the better. Come build the health care system of tomorrow, making it more responsive, affordable and equitable. Ready to make a difference? Join us to start Caring. Connecting. Growing together.

Primary Care Plus is looking for well qualified Internal Medicine and Family Practice physicians to join our growing practice in NEW ORLEANS, Louisiana. PCPlus clinics are part of a clinically integrated network designed to provide enhanced care to Medicare Advantage, Quality plan, and ACO members by delivering high quality, coordinated healthcare that produces superior outcomes in a cost effective manner. Our clinical team includes physicians, APRNs, RN Care Managers, clinic support staff, and a Quality Improvement team who work together to coordinate care for patients in both the outpatient and inpatient settings. A robust transitional care and high risk outreach program provides physicians with additional information to support their patients outside of the clinic.

PCPlus also uses a sophisticated electronic medical record system and robust analytical data analysis to identify patients who are high risk for poor outcomes in order to improve their quality of life. Consistent feedback is provided to the clinical team on all business objectives including quality measures, diagnostic accuracy, and hospitalization rates. Physicians are not measures based on productivity or RVUs, but rather on outcomes of their patient panels. Most physicians will care for panels in the 600-800 range and appointments are scheduled for 30-60 minutes per patient.

The Primary Care Physician (PCP) is a Licensed / Board Certified / Board Eligible trained professional in internal or family medicine who plays a key role as part of the clinical operations team providing direct patient care and providing assessments primarily in the ambulatory health care center setting or elsewhere as deemed necessary. It also includes the participation in clinical rounds and conferences plus in-depth documentation through written progress notes and summaries. The PCP will be required to demonstrate the ability to function both independently and in collaboration with other health care professionals. The PCP will consult with the applicable managers and medical directors to ensure compliance with guidelines along with participating in risk and quality management programs, clinical meetings and other meetings as required. The PCP will adhere to strict departmental goals / objectives, standards of performance, regulatory compliance, quality patient care compliance, and policies and procedures.

PCPlus provides highly competitive salaries with opportunity for annual merit increases and bonus potential. A full benefits package including PTO, CME time and reimbursement, malpractice insurance, relocation assistance, a sign on bonus and an employee stock purchase plan provided through our parent company, UnitedHealthcare.
