Full time Telehealth Physician, Lead

About The Role

We are seeking a multi-state licensed physician to serve as our Telehealth Physician Lead, providing clinical oversight, quality assurance, and hands-on leadership for our growing telehealth care program. Reporting to the VP of Care Delivery, you will own clinical execution and iteration — conducting virtual visits, leading, training and overseeing a team of physicians, and continuously refining workflows to ensure high-quality, coordinated care.

What You'll Do

• Congduct initial telehealth visits with enrolled members, assessing medical needs, care gaps, and barriers to accessing care
• Build and develop a high-performing clinical team, providing mentorship and professional development to foster long-term growth and leadership within the organization
• Establish clear clinical plans and care priorities, and collaborate with the care team for smooth handoffs
• Clinical oversight and QA: Audit clinical documentation to ensure compliance with community health billing and program requirements, and that social-determinants sequencing is logical and actionable
• Physician training and management: Serve as the primary clinical point of contact for our physician team — onboard new clinicians, deliver feedback, lead re-training, and ensure alignment with company values
• Appointment and workflow management: Help structure scheduling, intake, SMA logistics, and clinical workflows to scale efficiently across markets
• Policy iteration: Identify broken processes in the field and rapidly iterate on clinical policies, intake forms, and care plan templates
• Metric stewardship: Track and report on key clinical KPIs including ER diversion rates, care gap closures, and SDoH resolution
• Partner with Area Managers and LCSWs to bridge medical providers and Community Health Workers, ensuring the team operates as a unified care engine
• Provide clinical insight to refine program workflows as we scale

Requirements

• MD or DO with active, unrestricted licensure in multiple states (Pennsylvania, California, Arizona, Texas, South Carolina, New Mexico, New Jersey, Tennessee required, additional state licenses strongly preferred)
• Board certified in Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, or related primary care specialty
• Experience managing or providing oversight to other clinicians (MD/DO/NP/PA), including delivering constructive feedback
• Deep understanding of community health, and Social Determinants of Health (SDoH)
• Experience with group visit models strongly preferred
• Demonstrated experience using data to improve clinical quality and auditing documentation for compliance
• Comfortable working with Medicare, Medicaid, and complex populations
• Telehealth experience required
• "Fixer" DNA: comfortable identifying bottlenecks and bringing proposed solutions, not just problems
• Startup agility: excited to help write the manual as we scale, rather than waiting for a finished one
• Tech-fluent: navigates EHRs, Slack, and Google Suite easily and can train others
• Strong communication skills and ability to build trust quickly in a virtual setting

• Comprehensive health coverage, including medical, dental, and vision
• 401(k) Plan
• Paid Time Off
• Employee Assistance Program
• Health Care FSA

Why This Role Is Different

This isn't a traditional panel-based practice, and it isn't a pure administrative role either. You'll practice telehealth, oversee other physicians, and help shape a new model of community-based care for vulnerable populations — all while a dedicated support team carries out the ongoing engagement. If you're a physician who wants to improve care for vulnerable populations while building something new in a flexible, innovative care model, we'd love to connect.
