Primary Care Physician Assistant

Patients remember the clinician who listens, decides, and follows through. In this role you will own a panel’s day-to-day care—preventive visits, acute problems, and chronic disease—so more people leave with a clear plan and a next step. Success is measured in access, outcomes, and trust, not hours logged.

Performance Objectives

• Manage a defined primary care panel, completing same-day and scheduled visits with accurate diagnoses, treatment plans, and documented follow-up.
• Close care gaps for hypertension, diabetes, preventive screenings, and immunizations so quality measures improve quarter over quarter.
• Reduce avoidable delays by triaging acuity, coordinating labs and referrals, and resolving results within agreed turnaround times.
• Partner with physicians on complex cases, escalating promptly and presenting a recommended plan rather than an open question.
• Earn patient confidence: high visit completion, clear after-visit instructions, and fewer unplanned returns for the same problem.
• Keep the chart useful—problem lists, medications, and orders current before the encounter ends.

Environment & Resources

You will practice in a collaborative primary care team with physicians, nurses, and medical assistants, reporting to the lead physician or medical director. Expect a modern EHR, on-site or contracted lab and imaging pathways, established referral networks, and protected time for inbox and results. Clinical protocols, peer review, and CME support are part of the practice—not extras you have to invent.

Essential Qualifications

• Graduate of an accredited PA program and current NCCPA certification.
• Active state license (or eligibility) and DEA registration, or a clear path to both before start.
• At least two years in outpatient primary care, family medicine, or internal medicine, including independent chronic-disease management.
• Proven comfort with EHR documentation, e-prescribing, and quality reporting.
• Skill in shared decision-making with adults across ages, languages, and health literacy levels.
• Ability to work within physician supervision requirements while owning your schedule and outcomes.

Why This Role

• A real panel and measurable impact—not float coverage with no continuity.
• Physician partnership that treats your judgment as clinical work, not task overflow.
• Team support so you spend visits on patients, not hunting for results.
• A practice that tracks access and outcomes and will show you the numbers.
