About Hopscotch Primary Care

We believe great healthcare should be accessible to all people across all communities. Today, almost 20% of Americans live in a rural community, yet only 11% of physicians practice in those same communities. We are on a mission to transform healthcare in rural America.

Lead a care team that's rethinking primary care

At Hopscotch Primary Care, we deliver the kind of care we'd want for our own families — high-touch, coordinated, and unhurried. We serve seniors in Western North Carolina with a team-based model built around one goal: the right care, in the right setting, at the right time.

What you'll do

• Lead your clinical care team — Advanced Practitioners, Medical Assistants, Care Managers, and Community Health Workers — in delivering the Hopscotch care model
• Care for your own panel of senior patients in our comprehensive, interdisciplinary model, delivering best-in-class outcomes
• Coach your providers on panel management, documentation, and appropriate use of indirect care time — and hold the team accountable to a high standard
• Partner with your Care Center Manager to outperform on the metrics that matter: patient experience, STARS/HEDIS, care coordination, utilization, and cost of care
• Champion talent, culture, clinical innovation, and compliance across your center, acting as the standard-bearer for the Hopscotch care model
• Represent Hopscotch in the community through education, engagement, and events such as health fairs and conferences

Who you are

• Board certification in Internal Medicine or Family Medicine
• 3+ years of post-residency experience, including experience managing teams
• An active, non-probationary North Carolina medical license (or willingness to obtain) and authorization to work in the US
• It's a plus if you have:
• Experience with the Medicare population and at-risk / high-acuity panels
• Familiarity with value-based or other innovative clinical care models
• A track record of using data and insights to drive clinical action
• Experience leading, teaching, and developing others, both formally and informally

The way you lead

• High EQ. You build trust quickly with patients, providers, and partners — and you lean into the hard conversations rather than around them.
• Steady in ambiguity. You bring structure and a proactive, prioritized approach to a fast-paced, evolving environment.
• Humble and accountable. You lead by rolling up your sleeves, hold yourself and your team to a high bar, and set the tone for others to do the same.
