Job Description

Optum Home-Based Medical Care

Des Moines, IA

This is a Full-Time Opportunity

Optum is seeking a skilled Advanced Practice Provider to join our Home-Based Medical Care team in Des Moines, IA. As a clinician-led care organization, we are creating a seamless health journey for patients across the care continuum.

As a member of our Home and Community Care team, you will help bring home-based medical care to complex, chronic patients. This life-changing work helps give older adults more days at home.

At Optum, our integrated medical teams are creating something new in healthcare. Together, we are bringing high-end medical service, compassionate care, and industry-leading solutions to our most vulnerable patient populations. Our holistic approach addresses the physical, mental, and social needs of our patients wherever they may be - helping patients access and navigate care anytime and anywhere.

Work Schedule: Monday-Friday from 8am-5pm EST with additional rotating on-call responsibilities

As a Landmark Health Provider, you will visit your panel of patients in the comfort of their own homes. You will spend all the time needed to ensure your patients' health issues are addressed. You will create a friendly and trusting relationship with each patient and his or her family. You will have the support of a collaborative, multidisciplinary clinical team who works in the field with you. And you do it all at no added cost to the patient.

Landmark is not a fee-for-service practice. We create successful patient outcomes and high levels of satisfaction for our patients. As a result, our clinical teams can spend quality time caring for a smaller number of patients.

Primary Responsibilities:
  • Manage chronic illnesses in a complex elderly population with multimorbid conditions focused on wellness, avoiding unnecessary hospitalizations and ER visits, providing patient education about disease processes, improving overall quality of care, and increasing patient satisfaction in the healthcare system
  • Document timely with an added focus on closing HEDIS quality gap measures and recapturing HCCs
  • Engage new patients enrolling in the program with a comprehensive geriatric focused initial assessment that includes functional eval, social and safety assessments, cognitive screening, and mental health assessments and more
  • Triage, diagnose, and treat patients on an urgent basis in home with an array of equipment and medications
  • Order and interpret appropriate tests including x-rays, labs, and EKGs to diagnose, prescribe, and treat within the provider's scope of practice and consistent with the standards of care
  • Start treatment in the home at the point of care
  • Collaborate with patient's PCP and specialists as needed

By observing your patients in their homes, you will gain valuable insights into aspects of their lives - sometimes subtle, but always important - that otherwise may never be revealed in a traditional care setting. You will have the resources of our custom electronic medical records (EMR) program, comprehensive mobile medical technology system, and dedicated technical support department.

What We Offer:

  • Paid Time Off plus 9 Paid Holidays
  • Medical Plan options along with options for a Health Spending Account or a Health Saving account
  • Dental, Vision, Life & AD&D Insurance along with Short-term disability and Long-Term Disability coverage
  • 401(k) Savings Plan, Employee Stock Purchase Plan
  • Education Reimbursement
  • Employee Discounts
  • Employee Assistance Program
  • Employee Referral Bonus Program
  • Voluntary Benefits (pet insurance, legal insurance, LTC Insurance, etc.)

You will be rewarded and recognized for your performance in an environment that will challenge you and give you clear direction on what it takes to succeed in your role as well as provide development for other roles you may be interested in.

Required Qualifications:
  • Completion of Nurse Practitioner / Physician Assistant accredited program
  • Current state NP / PA license
  • Knowledge of CPT, ICD-9 and HCPC codes
  • Knowledge of clinical standards of care
  • Knowledge of Windows 2000 and MS Office Word Processing software
  • Proven ability to read, analyze, and interpret general business periodicals, professional journals, technical procedures, or governmental regulations. Ability to write reports, business correspondence, and procedure manuals. Ability to effectively present information and respond to questions from groups of managers, clients, customers, and the general public
  • Proven ability to add, subtract, multiply, and divide in all units of measure, using whole numbers, common fractions, and decimals. Ability to compute rate, ratio, and percent
  • Proven ability to solve practical problems and deal with a variety of concrete variables in situations where only limited standardization exists. Ability to interpret a variety of instructions furnished in written, oral, diagram, or schedule form
  • Access to reliable transportation; if you are driving a vehicle, you must comply with all the terms of the Landmark Motor Vehicle Safety policy
Preferred Qualifications:
  • 2+ years of clinical experience
  • Knowledge of long-term care, community resources and cost-effective alternatives regarding patient care delivery systems
  • Awareness about UM standards, NCQA requirements, CMS guidelines, Milliman guidelines, and Medicaid/Medicare contracts and benefit systems

  • While performing the duties of this job, the employee is regularly required to sit and use hands to finger, handle, or feel
  • The employee is required to stand; walk and reach with hands and arms
  • The employee must occasionally lift and/or move up to 10 pounds
