Position Summary

An experienced Medical Director who will set the standard of clinical excellence as a clinical leader within the eastern region of the United States. The Care Center Medical Director will be the clinical leader of multi-state care centers and be accountable to apree’s different models of value-based care delivery in the region including Vera physical care centers, virtual care, and external primary care partnerships. The Medical Director ensures that the regional provides high quality care and an exceptional patient experience across all modalities of care. Ideally this position would be part clinical–seeing patients in the apree model–to a variable amount of time. apree’s mission and clinical model were created to support providers who desire to deploy advanced primary care: a focus on patient care first, a strong patient-provider relationship, and use of empathetic listening to empower patients to actively participate in their own wellness goals.

The two Care Center Medical Directors (East and West) will divide the responsibilities of direct Associate Medical Director (local, practice-based leaders) supervision geographically. They will co-manage the necessary internal meetings and communication and act as a backup for each other when one is out of office. Other responsibilities will be divided based on capacity and interest to ensure clinical representation. The Medical Director reports and works directly with our Chief Medical Officer, and collaborates with other clinical leadership and matrixing with the operations teams. Management of the care centers and their relationships with their client(s) rests with the operations teams.

As an experienced healthcare leader and provider in our clinics, the Medical Director will partner with other health professionals to address acute, chronic, and preventive care needs as well as support patients to reach their wellness goals. As this position ideally would be part clinical provider, there should be flexibility to see patients up to 20% of the time in a mostly non-fixed panel. As such, being based in one of the posted four states is ideal. In this role, knowledge of the payer space, integrated delivery networks, or other value-based advanced primary care team-based models is a plus. apree is proud to have created clinic teams and environments that embrace the collaborative team concept in support of providing quality care to our patients. There is a ton of room to grow in this role.
