Job Description

We're building a telehealth practice supporting both Medicare and non-Medicare patients. Nurse practitioners in this role conduct independent clinical telehealth encounters, evaluating patients, determining medical necessity, and issuing orders within their full scope of practice. This is a flat-fee, per-encounter contract role, not a staff position. Training on call conduct and documentation is provided.

Responsibilities

  • Conduct independent telehealth encounters with patients
  • Perform clinical evaluation and document medical necessity per payer documentation standards
  • Issue orders and prescriptions within scope of practice and state law
  • Maintain complete, compliant clinical documentation for each encounter
  • Respond to documentation requests in the event of audit or claims review

Requirements

  • Active, unrestricted NP license with full practice authority in your state
  • Currently employed by or contracted with an agency that provides in-home services strongly preferred
  • Must have your own EMR, with the ability to add PeteDME's clinical templates
  • Completed any applicable transition-to-practice hours required for independent practice
  • Active NPI number
  • Board certification in good standing
  • No exclusions from federal healthcare programs (OIG/SAM)
  • Current malpractice coverage (occurrence-form or claims-made with tail coverage), or willingness to obtain
  • Comfortable with telehealth platforms and independent, high-volume encounter work
  • Prior experience with Medicare and commercial payer documentation requirements a plus

Contract Structure

  • Independent contractor (1099) — not an employment relationship
  • Written agreement, fixed term
  • Flat fee per completed encounter, set in advance, not tied to clinical outcome or ordering decision
  • Credentialing and license verification required prior to first encounter

$100 - $125 an hour
