Job Details

  Geisinger Health System, a national leader in primary care and population health, is seeking a dynamic physician leader to oversee the clinical excellence and administrative initiatives of a department comprised of six outpatient Primary Care clinics located in beautiful Wyoming and Luzerne Counties. The primary work site will be based in Tunkhannock, Pennsylvania.

The successful candidate will possess:

•             Board Certification in Family Medicine, Internal Medicine or Med-Peds (40% clinical responsibilities)

•             Strong clinical background and business acumen

•             Excellent communication skills

•             Successful track record in primary care and specialty integration in a multispecialty group practice environment

•             Successful record of leading quality initiatives in a group practice setting

•             Working knowledge and experience in practice leadership in a population health/medical home environment

Community Practice with Geisinger is not an ordinary primary care setting. With Geisinger you can take advantage of:

•             ProvenHealth Navigator, an advanced, nationally recognized patient-centered medical home model providing improved control of chronic diseases, more complete preventative care, reducing unnecessary re-hospitalization

•             Health System backing that assists physicians with routine tasks and mandated regulations allowing you to focus on patients, families and complex medical decision making

•             Ongoing enhancements to our fully-integrated Electronic Health Record (EHR), allowing physicians easy access to patient registries, test results, electronic prescribing, etc.

Geisinger Health System serves more than 3 million people in central, south-central and northeast Pennsylvania and also in southern New Jersey with the addition of AtlantiCare, a National Malcolm Baldridge Award recipient. In 2017, the Geisinger Commonwealth School of Medicine became the newest member of the Geisinger Family. Geisinger is nationally recognized for innovative practices and quality care.  A mature electronic health record connects a comprehensive network of 12 hospital campuses, 43 community practice sites and nearly 1,600 Geisinger primary and specialty care physicians.
