Virtual Physician – Transitions of Care (Hospitalist / Post-Acute)

A bit about this role: Devoted Medical, the affiliated multi-disciplinary virtual care partner of Devoted Health, is dedicated to delivering exceptional healthcare by treating every member with the compassion of family. We are seeking a Physician, Transitions of Care to provide exceptional patient care to recently discharged patients and advance our innovative clinical model focused on preventing hospital readmissions. This position represents an exceptional opportunity for an enthusiastic physician leader to drive clinical excellence of Devoted Medical's Transitions of Care (TOC) Program. This is an ideal role for an experienced Hospitalist, Post-Acute Physician, Virtual Care Physician, or Value-Based Primary Care Physician with a background in Geriatrics, Palliative Care, or Complex Care Management looking to lead virtual care delivery and readmission reduction strategies. The TOC program provides virtual care in the 30-day window after a patient is discharged from the acute setting (hospital or skilled nursing facility), serving patients across multiple states with the goal of preventing readmissions through exceptional, comprehensive wrap-around care. The program leverages cutting-edge technology and artificial intelligence (AI) to provide the best care possible. The Physician will deliver high-quality clinical care to patients at high risk for readmission as part of a collaborative interprofessional team (IDT) of healthcare professionals, including nurse practitioners, physicians assistants, registered nurses, medical assistants, and clinical coordinators. This role combines direct patient care (approximately 70% of time) with team development, coaching for clinical excellence within an IDT, leading clinical problem-solving, and facilitating rounds (approximately 30% of time focused on clinical supervision, escalations, and clinical model improvement). Leadership in this role is focused on clinical supervision rather than direct administrative management. You will be supported by advanced AI-enabled technology and comprehensive Devoted Medical programs — including virtual urgent care, specialty care such as palliative care, complex care management, and clinical pharmacy services. Because Devoted is a tech-forward, fast-moving organization, physicians are expected to support the training and application of AI tools that enable an unprecedented quality of care for our patients. This position offers the opportunity to impact patient outcomes at scale in a modern, tech-supported care environment. This role is designed for a physician with an entrepreneurial mindset who can leverage their deep clinical background to spearhead intricate quality improvement projects, cultivate a standard of clinical excellence within a distributed team, and champion the implementation of evolving AI technologies. In this capacity, the physician acts as the ultimate point for clinical escalations and manages oversight via collaborative practice agreements in various states.   Your Responsibilities and Impact Will Include: Clinical Leadership & Patient Care (~70% of time): Clinical Care for Transitions of Care: Deliver high-quality direct virtual patient care to patients recently discharged from the acute setting who are at high risk for readmission, focusing on complex transitions of care cases. Clinical Escalations: Serve as the final escalation point for clinical questions and complex patient management decisions within your assigned interdisciplinary care team. Clinical Outcomes Oversight: Oversee a narrow set of quality and clinical outcome metrics that are critical drivers of improved readmission rates.

Management & Clinical Supervision (~30% of time): Clinical Supervision & Collaborative Practice: Provide supervision, teaching, and coaching to a team of Nurse Practitioners through collaborative practice agreements across multiple states, fostering a collaborative and supportive clinical environment.
