Pediatric Psychiatrist

Britt Medical Search is currently recruiting for a full-time Child Psychiatrist to support the active duty and dependents in the National Capitol Region.

Healthcare organizations across the Country are struggling with the volume of daily episodes of care required to meet revenue targets and managed care pressures. Reimbursements are such that throughput levels need to be elevated to points that begin to decrease the quality of care physicians can provide.

With Britt Medical Search, there are no revenue targets or managed care pressures. Our practice model is designed to offer Behavioral Health professionals an opportunity to deliver high-quality healthcare for their patients. Our facility is well-supported by senior practice managers, strong ancillary department leadership, seasoned RN and technician support staff, and great access to a wide range of medical specialists.

• We offer a practice model that pays competitively from a patient volume perspective.
• We offer work-life balance and flexible scheduling.
• We provide a high-quality care environment with clinical outcomes as our priority.
• Our model is sheltered from the revenue and financial pressures (and associated practice hassles) of commercial medicine.
• Outpatient setting.
• Average of 8-10 patients per day.
• Consistent and predictable pay.
• On-call:
  • Largely telephone on-call. Will be available for the chief resident for consultation.
  • The psychiatrists really are like 3rd call, in that a therapist will evaluate the patient and contact the resident to determine if the patient can be admitted to one of the BH units. The resident will then be in communication with the psychiatrist. During the week, this communication occurs over the phone. On the weekends (and holidays), the resident and the psychiatrist will round on the inpatient units together.

• Full-time, 40 hours per week Monday through Friday.
• Focus on providing medical care, not running a business and managing staff.
• No insurance hassles or bad debt.
