Job Description
About Wider Circle
Wider Circle is a mission-driven healthcare organization working to improve health outcomes for older adults and complex populations by addressing social and clinical barriers to care. Through trusted relationships and community-based support, we partner with health plans and local organizations to help members navigate healthcare, stay engaged in care, and live healthier lives.
We are launching a new clinical pilot that integrates physicians, care navigators, and community support teams to create a more coordinated and human approach to care.
About the Role
We are seeking a New Mexico-licensed physician to serve as a consulting clinician for an early-stage care program. In this role, you will conduct initial virtual visits with members to understand their medical needs, barriers to care, and overall health goals.
Your evaluation helps set the direction for the member’s care journey. After the initial visit, ongoing support is provided by a care team including Community Health Workers and Licensed Clinical Social Workers, allowing you to focus on clinical guidance rather than longitudinal case management.
This role is ideal for physicians interested in innovative care delivery, telehealth, and population health models that extend beyond traditional office-based practice.
What You’ll Do
- Conduct initial telehealth visits with enrolled members
- Assess medical needs, care gaps, and barriers to accessing care
- Establish a clear clinical plan and care priorities
- Collaborate with care team members to ensure a smooth handoff and continuity of care
- Provide clinical insight to help refine program workflows during the pilot phase
- Support a patient-centered approach addressing social and medical needs together
Job Requirements
- What You Bring
- MD or DO with an active, unrestricted NM license
- Board certified or board eligible (Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, or related primary care specialty preferred)
- Comfort working with Medicare, Medicaid, or complex populations
- Strong communication skills and ability to build trust quickly in a virtual setting
- Interest in care coordination, health navigation, or whole-person care models
- Comfort working in a startup-like, evolving program environment
- Telehealth experience preferred
Benefits
- 1099 independent contractor
- Part-time, flexible scheduling
- Virtual visits
- Pilot program with opportunity to expand as the model grows
- Competitive compensation ($150-$175 p/hr)
- Why This Role Is Different
- This is not a traditional panel-based practice.
- You focus on understanding the patient and setting direction — while a dedicated support team helps carry out the ongoing engagement.
- If you’re interested in improving care for vulnerable populations while working in a flexible, innovative care model, we’d love to connect.
