Telehealth Provider (MD & DO)

Pippen Health, the virtual medicine practice affiliated with Found, is looking for providers (MDs & DOs) to join their team of clinicians dedicated to delivering high-quality, patient-centric care. Found’s platform integrates leading weight management clinical practice with innovative technology to provide holistic support for patients during their health journeys. Led by Dr. Rekha Kumar, a leader in obesity medicine, Found's program brings a more personalized, supportive, and hands-on approach to obesity care than other telemedicine companies. 

As a clinician on the Found platform, you’ll benefit from tools such as Found’s easy-to-use, proprietary EMR that allows you to connect meaningfully with patients while maintaining a flexible work schedule that meets your needs. As a provider at one of the largest obesity medicine practices in the US, you will be expanding access to high-quality, cost-efficient weight management care for patients nationwide.

You will get to be an early part of Found’s newest offering, expanding care to members with insurance primarily through synchronous consultations. Consultations include health assessments, lab screenings, management of diagnoses related to obesity, prescribing medication if indicated, documentation, & follow-up care for patients. Alongside our member support team and RNs, you will provide ongoing clinical support to patients as they navigate their weight care journey, including managing medication side effects, changing treatment plans based on changes in patient’s health, weight loss progress, &/or insurance coverage. Best efforts are made to maintain continuity of care between patient & clinician to develop long-term relationships.

Providers at Found are passionate about increasing access, improving health outcomes, and delivering an excellent experience to patients at the cutting edge of weight management and obesity care. The ideal candidate would be a technologically-savvy, life-long learner who has independent practice experience in obesity medicine and telemedicine (synchronous and asynchronous). 

Qualifications:

• MD or DO degree
• Board certified in at least one of the following: internal medicine, emergency medicine, family medicine
• Licensed in multiple states, including some combination of: NJ, IN, CA, PA, NC, GA, TN, SC, MD, CT, MA, HI, SD or MT. Candidates with licensure in additional states are welcome to apply.
• At least 2 years of independent practice experience
• Previous telemedicine experience
• Strong and empathetic oral and written communication skills
• Ability to adapt and remain agile, while helping to improve our ability to deliver care
• Obesity medicine certification preferred

Research shows that addressing weight health reduces the long-term risk of diabetes, heart disease, and some forms of cancer. Found believes in giving members tools that will help them add years to their lives and reach their goals. Because weight care is not just what you've lost, it's about what you've Found.
