Address chronic and acute primary care complaints, accurately assessing medical urgency. Establish and document reasonable medical diagnoses. Seek specialty consultations as appropriate. Order and perform pertinent diagnostic laboratory and radiology testing judiciously, working effectively within an environment of limited resources. Recognize when patient needs exceed your scope of knowledge and when physician oversight is necessary. Create and implement medical plans of care. Schedule patient appointments for subsequent visits when appropriate. Provide post-discharge coordination to help reduce hospital readmission rates and emergency room utilization. Conduct face-to-face, in-person visits in a variety of settings, including homes, skilled nursing facilities, and public locations. Potentially perform face-to-face visits via alternate modalities based on business needs, leadership direction, and state regulations. Order bulk laboratory orders to target specific member populations. Participate in alternating on-call coverage to triage urgent lab results and pharmacy inquiries, developing appropriate plans of care. Engage in community-based “Pop Up Clinics” to build relationships and address healthcare gaps. Drive regularly (up to 120 miles daily) within your assigned region. Extended Mileage Special Project days may involve drives beyond 120 miles and potentially overnight hotel stays. Obtain and maintain cross-state licensure as required by business needs. Collaborate with fellow Nurse Practitioners to develop efficient and effective best practices. Actively participate in regional meetings. Prescribe medications and perform procedures as appropriate. Perform timely documentation in medical records using an electronic medical record system. Occasionally, walk flights of stairs while carrying up to 50 lbs. of equipment.
