Home Hospital Physician for Hybrid Work Model with Mass General Brigham
4 weeks ago
Mass General Brigham is expanding its Home Hospital program and seeking physicians who are passionate about delivering exceptional patient care in innovative settings. This hybrid work model offers full-time and part-time opportunities for physicians to serve patients throughout greater Boston.
Our physicians practice as part of an interdisciplinary team that values patient-centered care, healthcare delivery innovation, health equity, digital health technology, and acute care medicine. If you have interests in these areas, our program may be of interest to you.
As a Home Hospital Physician, you will provide hospital-level acute care in patients' homes and be part of a team that includes Registered Nurses, Community Paramedics, Advanced Practice Providers, Pharmacists, Case Managers, Social Workers, Home Health Aides, Physical Therapists, and other operational staff. You will be the attending of record for patients admitted to the Home Hospital service.
Responsibilities of the Home Hospital Physician include medical decision-making, patient evaluations through a combination of in-person and virtual visits tailored to the patients' needs, documentation, oversight of and collaboration with the Home Hospital team, periodic teaching to team members, and being 'on call' for patient needs overnight with the support of a Community Paramedic team who makes in-person overnight visits. In addition to their clinical duties, Home Hospital physicians may have the opportunity to participate in care redesign initiatives and/or mentored research and innovation projects.
Home Hospital physicians are typically scheduled for blocks of up to 7 days, which may consist of patient rounding (field-based), coordination and virtual team support, and admitting (primarily hospital-based). Virtual night-time coverage will be needed occasionally. Home Hospital physicians may provide direct care and/or collaborate with Advanced Practice Providers.
**Key Responsibilities:**
- Provides home visits within defined radius around site hospitals according to Home Hospital care model.

- Practices cost-effective medicine in an efficient manner, maximizing available resources.
- Discusses patient data with other physicians and professionals as appropriate in a multidisciplinary setting.
