What are the responsibilities and job description for the Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant position at Matrix Medical Network?
Nurse Practitioner/Physician Assistant - PRN Home Risk Assessments
We offer a broad range of clinical services and proven expertise that give primary care providers and at-risk health plan members the tools and knowledge to better manage their health at home.
Our national network of clinicians breaks through traditional barriers to care by meeting those members where they are. We help older adults and other at-risk individuals enjoy a better quality of care, experience improved health outcomes, and identify chronic conditions that may otherwise go undiagnosed.
As a Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant on our team, you will leverage your expertise and compassion to make a direct impact on the health and well-being of others.
About the Position
During a visit that can last up to one hour, our providers review and observe a member's current health, medical history, medication adherence, social environment, and other risks. This provides unmatched insight into a member's overall health and well-being that can be difficult to capture during routine office visits.
The Matrix Comprehensive Health Assessment helps to improve quality of care and allows us to potentially close multiple care gaps with a single visit.
