To our prospective teammates,

I am the national medical director for Sound Telemedicine Post Acute. I have been a part of Sound for over 4 years. I am proud of the post-acute telemedicine practice we have built and welcome interest from physicians and experienced NPs. I would like to share more about it, specifically about our people, practice, and purpose, as you consider options:

People

• We are a closely-knit, established team of 50 providers
• Our team primarily comes from generalist training (Family, Adult Gero) and can have a diverse set of prior clinical experiences including hospital-based practices, outpatient clinics or post-acute facilities like nursing homes.
• Our providers are located across the country and can work from home while serving a much-needed population in post-acute facilities like nursing homes to prevent unnecessary ER visits and unnecessary hospitalizations.
• Many of our providers have a strong interest in the geriatric population, subacute population, complex patient care, value-based care models, and innovation, and have a growth mindset interested in serving an underserved population.

Practice

• We welcome the challenge of complex patients who are in post-acute care environments like nursing homes and need increased physician engagement cross-coverage model via telemedicine and availability after hours on evenings, nights, and 24/7 on weekends and holidays.
• We meet monthly as a group for practice changes or group updates.
• Most of us like to spend time with our families and working from home helps each of the providers in this group meet their personal and professional needs.
• We offer a flexible schedule that is released in advance so that you can plan your other commitments. We cover for each other when we are out.
• Benefits include medical, dental, vision, life, and AD&D insurance, long- and short-term disability, 401k with match, paid medical malpractice and tail coverage, and annual CME allowance.

Purpose

• We put patients first. Always.
• A focus on growth and development is a key feature of Sound practices, where teammates can expand their careers here locally and within the broader medical group.
