Telehealth Physician
About the Role
Access to quality primary care in the United States is not evenly distributed. For millions of Americans, a routine sick visit or chronic disease check-in means hours in a waiting room, a long drive, or skipping care entirely. We have helped connect over a million patients across the country to board-certified physicians from their phones and laptops, and we are looking for exceptional physicians to grow that network.
As a Telehealth Physician, you will see a genuinely diverse patient population spanning privately insured, Medicare and uninsured patients across the United States. The scope is broad by design: urgent care, weight management, primary care, and chronic disease management. The format is built around your life: you work from home, keep your existing clinical relationships, and choose shifts from our available late afternoon, evening, and weekend schedule. We handle malpractice coverage and the cost of additional state licenses so you can stay focused on the medicine.
This is an independent contractor engagement. You are not exclusive to us unless you choose to pursue additional licensing support under a signed addendum.
What You'll Do
As a Telehealth Physician, you will deliver high-quality virtual care across a broad scope serving patients wherever they are in the United States. Your primary responsibilities will include:
- Conducting virtual patient encounters via video, performing clinical assessment across urgent care and primary care including acute illness, chronic disease management, metabolic health and preventive care
- Diagnosing and developing individualized treatment plans grounded in evidence-based practice and current clinical guidelines
- Prescribing medications (we do not prescribe any controlled substances) and ordering appropriate diagnostic workup within telehealth scope
- Completing timely, accurate clinical documentation in the EMR following each encounter
- Collaborating with our care coordination and operations teams when patients require escalation, referral, or in-person follow-up
- Maintaining active, unrestricted licensure in required states
- Upholding our patient experience standards, bringing the same clinical rigor and genuine warmth to a virtual encounter that you would bring in person
Why You Might Be a Good Fit
- You want to practice medicine without managing a practice
- You are a natural communicator who can build patient trust
- You are drawn to the access mission: serving Medicare, and uninsured patients alongside commercially insured patients is the right scope of a practice to you
- You value flexibility and want to maintain other clinical work, set your own schedule within available shifts, and not be anchored to a single employer if wanted
- You are comfortable making confident clinical decisions with the information available in a virtual encounter, and you know when a patient needs a higher level of care
- You hold licensure in multiple states and see a broad geographic reach as an asset
This Might Not Be The Right Fit If...
- You rely on in-person physical examination to feel clinically confident; this work requires comfort with diagnosis and decision-making from history and patient-reported symptoms
- You are looking for a W-2 role
- You prefer a consistent day-shift schedule with in-person colleagues and an established patient panel
- You want to specialize narrowly with treating a few conditions; this role is weight management, urgent, and primary care
- You are not currently a Medicare Participating Physician, or you are unwilling to pursue the multi-state licensure the platform requires if needed
Your Qualifications
- Active, unrestricted medical licenses in at least 5 US states; if you do not reside in an Interstate Medical
- Licensure Compact (IMLC) member state, you must hold at least 8 unrestricted state licenses
- Board Certified in Internal Medicine or Family Medicine
- Minimum 2 years of post-graduate clinical experience
- Currently a Medicare Participating Physician
- Willingness to obtain additional state medical licenses as needed (cost covered by us under a signed addendum)
- Availability to work a combination of late afternoon, evening, Friday, and Saturday shifts (specific hours vary based on your time zone and location)
- Excellent verbal communication skills with the ability to build rapport and conduct thorough clinical assessments via video
- Active DEA in one state for credentialing purposes
Bonus Points
- Experience in a high-volume telehealth setting
- Several years of telehealth experience predominantly video appointments
- Active licensure already in place across 10 or more states
