NP/PA – Patient Support Unit

NP/PA Patient Support Role – team is needing to increase in size due to the new member expansion.

This NP/PA goes to contracted clinics and helps them with their initial workup and assessment of the Medicare Advantage patients to ensure proper coding and RAF scoring. So not your typical clinic work – must be willing to drive throughout Waco up to Hillsboro and have at least 9 months of experience. This is a very autonomous role with plenty of training available. You will not be treating patients, but you will educate patients and providers on proper coding, risk adjustment metrics, capturing documentation, and adhering to quality protocols. The NP/PA will also interview patients to ensure proper documentation and to ensure all preventative screenings have been complete.
