Marion, United States Hopscotch Primary Care Full time
About Hopscotch Primary Care

At Hopscotch Primary Care, we believe great healthcare should be accessible to all people across all communities. Today, almost 20% of Americans live in a rural community, yet only 11% of physicians practice in those same communities. We are on a mission to transform healthcare in rural America. We provide high-quality primary care tailored to meet the needs of our patients through our robust care model and comprehensive care team, delivering care in our clinics, and across settings, and wrapping resources around the patients who need them most.

Our patients and the care teams who serve them sit at the center of everything we do at Hopscotch. Hopscotch Primary Care takes a team approach to serve patient needs and provide the best care possible. Our goal is to provide the care each of us would want for ourselves or for our family members, in the right setting, and at the right time.

Today, we are serving thousands of patients in our value-based care model and the number is growing every day. If you want to bring your experience, skill and passion to make a lasting impact in healthcare, we'd like to meet you.

About the Role

As a Community Health Worker, you play a critical role on the Hopscotch care team, working closely with a physician and others on the team to serve our patients, especially in the community.

  • Facilitate communication across all parties (Patient, Hopscotch team, community providers, family, etc)
You will also support end-to-end care needs for new and existing patients in the Hopscotch care model across care settings:
  • Develop a care plan including objective goals and work across the care team to progress towards those goals
  • Meet with patients where it is convenient for them (e.g., Hopscotch Primary Care center, facility, home, community setting)
  • Partner with the care team to help patients and their families prepare for the patient leaving the hospital, emergency department, or skilled nursing facility
  • Drive engagement with patients (e.g., completed specialty appointments, adherence to post-discharge plans, adherence to medication regimen), which may include accompaniment to appointments
  • Assist application completion to access eligible benefits
  • Conduct wellness checks and enable remote monitoring and virtual care as needed
  • Help navigate managed care plans by understanding details and resources, and ensuring mindful utilization by working with the care team and patients to develop recommendations

Additional requirements include:
  • The ability to transport oneself to various locations in and around the Asheville, NC community, including patient homes, paying attention to travel and compliance policies
