Physicians - Primary Care Physician and Associate Market Medical Director

ArchWell Health•Charlotte, NC

About The Position

ArchWell Health is an innovative, rapidly growing medical group changing how primary care is delivered to seniors. Its centers are located in communities with limited access to quality healthcare. The care model emphasizes better, comprehensive primary care rather than volume of services, with more time spent with patients. The Associate Market Medical Director provides leadership and administrative support to a group of providers in a market. The role is primarily patient-facing, with dedicated time for administrative work. The ideal candidate is a physician with value-based care experience who enjoys patient care and wants to expand into leadership. Clinical work includes providing outpatient primary care and consulting services, maintaining appropriate records and documentation, collaborating with care-team members, supporting timely access and a high-quality patient experience, participating in community outreach and clinical meetings, and providing call coverage as scheduled. Leadership duties include supporting a subset of providers across potentially multiple locations through regular one-on-ones, annual performance reviews, metrics review, and addressing performance or behavior concerns. The director also supports utilization management through referral reviews, interdisciplinary team rounds, and admission-record reviews, and partners with operations to implement workflows aligned with the ArchWell Health model.
