HouseCalls is an innovative, performance-driven program that brings care directly to members' homes. As a HouseCalls Advanced Practice Clinician (Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant), you will conduct annual in-home health assessments for Medicare Advantage and other plan members. This is a non-prescribing, field-based role focused on improving health outcomes through education, gap closure, and collaboration with primary care providers (PCP).

Primary Responsibilities:

Conduct comprehensive in-home assessments, including:

Past medical history review, medication reconciliation, vital signs, and physical exam

Evidence-based screenings and point-of-care testing (as appropriate)

Identify and document diagnoses for care management and treatment planning

Communicate findings to members' PCPs to address gaps in care

Recognize urgent/emergent situations and intervene appropriately

Educate members on disease processes, medications, and compliance

Address social determinants of health and provide referrals as needed

You'll be rewarded and recognized for your performance in an environment that will challenge you and give you clear direction on what it takes to succeed in your role as well as provide development for other roles you may be interested in.

Required Qualifications:

For NPs: Active ANCC or AANP certification in Family, Adult, Geriatric, or Adult-Gerontology Primary Care

For PAs: Current NCCPA certification and state licensure

Active, unrestricted licensure in the state you will be practicing in (or ability to obtain by start date) without current disciplinary actions or practice limitations

Active and unrestricted driver's license

In addition to a driver's license, access to reliable transportation to complete home visits

Ability to navigate varied home environments; ability to sit/stand/kneel as needed to perform assessments

If you're working in a state that allows NPs/PAs to practice independently (without Collaborative Agreement), you must get approval from your licensing board-if required. New hires who are eligible but haven't applied yet must do so within 1 month of starting. If you're not eligible at the time of hire, you must begin working toward eligibility within 1 month and apply for approval within 3 months of becoming eligible

Preferred Qualifications:

1+ years of clinical experience (family, geriatric, or home health preferred)

Proficiency with electronic medical records and technology

Ability to transport equipment weighing up to 30 pounds and navigate stairs as part of home visits

Proven communication skills with geriatric or Medicare populations
