PA-StoPA-C Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 (edited) Anyone know of PA friendly (urgent care like) telemedicine jobs? Ones that provide a supervising physician and malpractice insurance by default. It seems all the mainstream telemedicine companies hire physicians and NPs only.

Cideous Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 I looked into this last year and found the same thing. Only NP's and docs. I was specifically told not to apply because "Physician Assistant laws were too dependent, whereas NP's were not.." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also meant to add in my original post - companies that provide a supervising physician internally and malpractice insurance. Does Encore do this?

Does Encore do this? They provide malpractice for sure. They have been ambiguous about the SP. they have said “ we’ll take care of it”. So we will see. My state has pretty strict rules so I am staying on top of them. Feel free to PM for more details.

SamthePA Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 I do telemedicine (over the phone, no video) as a side gig. Basically when the offices close, many patients still call and need advice. So I either tell them to manage it at home, schedule UC visit or refer them to ER. It's always been busy....it's 3-4x as busy as it was with COVID-19.

What state licenses are required? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ncb123 Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Has anyone seen a medical dermatology PA friendly telemedicine position? I found one telemedicine dermatology company but they only employ MDs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
