Daymark Health • Boston, MA

3d • $250,000 - $325,000 • Hybrid

About The Position

Daymark is partnering with leading healthcare providers across New England to bring supportive oncology care into the home for patients with cancer. As Daymark's Primary Care Physician, Supportive Oncology, you will be one of the clinical leads for that work and one our care teams turn to for guidance. You will combine direct patient care with clinical oversight and be a visible leader in our provider partnerships. You will support each partnership clinically, enhancing how we work alongside a partner's primary care physicians and oncologists and making sure the care we deliver in the home is care that partners trust with their patients. You will see patients virtually, partner with our Nurse Practitioners, help set the standard for how we document and communicate the care we deliver, and serve as a steward of Daymark's clinical program. You should be comfortable operating as a player/coach – rolling up your sleeves on direct care while shaping the processes that let partnerships thrive.
