Job Description

ArchWell Health is an innovative, rapidly-growing medical group that is changing the way primary care is delivered to seniors. Our state-of-the-art centers are located in communities where there is little to no quality healthcare today.

The ArchWell Health model of care is entirely driven by proving better primary care to our patients, not by the volume of services we provide. Because we are fully accountable for the health of our patients, we spend more time with them and offer more comprehensive care.

Put simply, we provide the care that our patients deserve. For more information, visit archwellhealth.com.

The Associate Market Medical Director is responsible for providing leadership and administrative support to a group of providers in a market. This role is primarily patient-facing, but will have dedicated time in their schedule for administrative work. The ideal candidate will be a physician with experience in value-based care who enjoys patient care but is seeking to expand into a leadership role.
