Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant

About the Role:

Galileo is looking for a primary care Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant with strong clinical experience in complex care and an interest in improving health outcomes for those who need it the most. Unlike in traditional practices, at Galileo you’ll be given the time and tools necessary to truly solve patient issues in a proactive manner, work with an excellent team of multi-disciplinary experts, and be at the frontier of modern medicine.

Here’s what you’ll do:

Direct Patient Care

• Act as a key PCP on our clinical team, which provides exceptional care to cohorts of Medicare and Medicaid patients.
• Deliver primary care in a patient-centric and provider-centric model - in the home, in the clinic, and through virtual visits. The scope of care includes preventive health, chronic disease management, urgent care, and transitions of care 
• Collaborate, and partner across care team members including social work, behavioral health, virtual urgent care and triage, and clinical sub-specialists. 
• Present patients during complex care rounds and solicit interdisciplinary feedback in formulating effective care plans.
• Educate patients on their health conditions and develop care and treatment plans.

Patient Advocacy

• Advocate for seamless coordination of care among individuals involved in your patients' lives across the care continuum, within the home and within the community to ensure the best outcomes for patients.
• Identify and help to address any financial, social, environmental or functional barriers to care or better health 

Population Health

• Take proactive ownership of population health outcomes - hospital/ED admissions/readmissions, quality metrics, and patient satisfaction
• Drive ongoing improvements for our care model, optimizing outcomes while decreasing inefficiency
• Conduct follow-up visits with patients post-hospital discharge to assess their recovery progress, ensure adherence to discharge instructions, and address any ongoing medical needs or concerns
