About The Position

Prisma Health Urgent Care is hiring a remote physician to provide clinical oversight, consultation, and support to Advanced Practice Providers (APPs).

This is a fully remote position, but the physician must physically reside in South Carolina.

Prisma Health Urgent Care uses a team-based physician coverage model. Depending on operational needs, the physician may provide coverage for assigned centers on certain days and may support APPs at nearby centers. Daily coverage responsibilities are separate from formal Medical Board supervising or collaborating physician assignments and may not correspond directly to the APPs named in an individual agreement.

• Have a desire to serve others and improve community health.

Responsibilities

• Provide timely clinical consultation and support to APPs during assigned supervision or coverage periods, including by telephone or other approved communication methods when not physically present at a center.
