Absolute Care offers concierge health services using a risk-bearing, PCP-driven care model. We treat the most clinically complex and vulnerable members of the communities we serve, many of whom suffer from behavioral health, substance use, and SDoH challenges.

We use population health management tools to employ a holistic approach to caring for the highest utilizers of healthcare services in our comprehensive care centers and in the community.

Absolute Care tends exclusively to the needs of the top four to six percent of the population who persistently represent a disproportionate amount of unnecessary utilization and cost, regardless of whether they are engaged with other PCPs.

In our more than 20 years of service, Absolute Care has focused on fulfilling the needs of this population. And we have consistently achieved unprecedented outcomes by addressing medical and psychosocial issues, in addition to the hardships of life that can exacerbate chronic health conditions and complicate access to care.

NREMT- Job Summary :

The NREMT will go out into the community as our medical eyes and ears during and after clinic hours. If paired with a Paramedic, you will go to the houses of our members who either call us after hours and need medical assessment and / or assistance.

Your team will then relay valuable information back to the provider on call who will be a physician or nurse practitioner.

Together, the team will make a disposition decision. If you are assigned to a CBNP during clinic hours, then you will assist this practitioner with the member’s in home visit including assessment and any needed treatment appropriate for home base care.

Should our member need care best delivered in our clinic based acute care area, we will arrange transportation to our office.

Through our value based approach to the provision of healthcare, we strive to reduce unnecessary emergency department visits, prolonged hospital stays, and unnecessary admissions to skilled nursing units.

Barriers such as the inability to obtain prescription medication or find transportation to primary care and specialists appointments are overcome through our on sight pharmacy and a dedicated pharmacy staff.
