Hospitalist - MD - with a great Work Life Balance!

We are searching for physicians to work for an exciting and rapidly growing integrated healthcare provider in the Seattle - Tacoma area, offering a work balance including hospital rounding and clinical work, and a work - life balance that is doable and meaningful. These positions will be located in the Lynnwood and Lakewood communities.

The Extensivist - Hospitalist will be part of an integrated healthcare organization that provides health plans and comprehensive services to dual eligible (Medicare and Medicaid) patients, with most requiring care for complex chronic conditions. The Extensivist - Hospitalist will generally divide time between the hospital, rounding on a small group of patients each day, and one of our organization's outpatient clinics, seeing recently discharged patients. In the clinic, physicians care for patients at high risk of hospital admission or readmission. They also see patients in an outpatient setting after a hospital stay. Our physicians will perform inpatient responsibilities at Seattle area hospitals. They will not respond to "codes", nor is the performance of procedures required. The Extensivists - Hospitalist will keep a regular Monday - Friday schedule, and will have the best of both the inpatient and outpatient elements of medicine.

Our model is considered low volume with longer visits, more in-depth time spent with each patient. The Extensivist - Hospitalist will have the ability to do all that is possible for each patient.

Excellent career advancement opportunities in leadership roles.
Strong salary and benefits package including relocation.

This healthcare organization views its model as providing concierge medical services to the most disadvantaged population that are typically being poorly served by traditional fee-for-service medical systems. Their model of care centers around frequent access to clinical teams (MD---s, NP---s, RN---s social workers and care managers) with comprehensive care planning designed specifically to meet the needs for these complex chronically ill patients.
