North Carolina Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP)
About The Position
You Are Accountable is hiring a North Carolina remote Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner to provide initiating visits and supervision for Principal Illness Navigation–Peer Support (PIN-PS) programs. Each patient's navigation episode begins with a qualifying initiating visit furnished by a billing practitioner. The practitioner establishes the diagnosis, medical necessity, and plan of care, and provides general supervision while certified peer support specialists furnish ongoing navigation services incident to the practitioner’s services. This is a flexible telehealth independent-contractor engagement. The practitioner sets their own schedule around agreed availability, maintains independent clinical judgment, and may continue other practices because the role is non-exclusive. Compensation is based on professional services personally furnished and a monthly stipend for supervised patients. The engagement includes a 12-month notice period for termination without cause, ending earlier once enrolled patients have been transitioned to a successor with continuity of care maintained. After giving notice, the practitioner is not obligated to accept new patients. Engagement is subject to credentialing, exclusion screening, and payer enrollment.
