Fairbanks, United States Unavailable Full time
Overview

Make your move to Alaska Experience the midnight sun in the summer, a front-row seat to the northern lights in the winter, and the opportunity to advance your career as you broaden your scope of practice.    

Fairbanks Memorial Hospital, a subsidiary of Foundation Health Partners, is searching for a full-time Anesthesia Medical Director to lead our highly experienced team.

The Opportunity:

Experience an exciting opportunity as an anesthesia physician at Fairbanks Memorial Hospital (FMH), where you can play a pivotal role in shaping healthcare delivery in Interior Alaska. In our model, CRNAs manage 100% of cases under physician oversight, fostering a collaborative environment that enables your participation in multiple procedures across various specialties. This approach ensures high-quality patient care while providing opportunities to expand your skill set in an engaging and stimulating work environment. As a 150-licensed-bed sole community hospital, FMH serves as a vital healthcare lifeline in Interior Alaska, offering a full scope of practice.

As the Anesthesia Medical Director, you will be the department liaison, collaborating with hospital leadership to enhance services, lead the anesthesia team, and support the community. Additionally, we are opening up a position for a CRNA lead to help with the day-to-day management of the team. This position provides leadership responsibilities for those looking to expand their administration skills without giving up their anesthesia practice. Join us in our mission to provide exceptional care and leadership in one of the world's most breathtaking regions.

  • Compensation: $590,200 base salary. $65k sign-on bonus. Eligible for an annual $10,000 physician incentive quality metric bonus.
