Accompany Health is on a mission to give low-income patients with complex needs the dignified, high-quality care they deserve but rarely receive. A primary, behavioral, and social care provider, Accompany Health walks alongside patients for their entire care journey, offering at-home and virtual care, as well as 24/7 support. Partnering with innovative payors, Accompany Health is powered by remarkable care teams, elegant technology, and a commitment to evidence-based practice.
We build long-term relationships with our patients so they know, without question, that our team is here for them day or night, year after year. We focus on the health outcomes most important to our patients to make it clear that they lead the way.
To achieve our mission, we collaborate with community-based organizations, local providers, and health plans. Led by our empathetic care teams, guided by proven care models, and powered by our own technology, we deliver a level of service that our communities rightfully deserve but rarely receive.
While our headquarters is in Bethesda, MD, our teams are distributed across the country. If you’re eager to make a tangible difference in people’s lives, to help correct long-standing disparities in health care, join us.
About the role:
As Accompany Health grows, the Behavioral Health Advanced Practice Clinician (BH APC) will be an important clinician in the BH team. The BH APC will work side-by-side with our Director of Integrated Behavioral Health to see patients primarily virtually, with the potential for in-person visits, in the Detroit market as well as in future markets. The BH APC reports to our National Director of Integrated Behavioral Health, and has an important voice in the development and implementation of our BH programs across the organization.
This is a primarily clinical role and the BH APC will function as a key part of our Integrated Care Team, which also include physicians, primary care advanced practice clinicians, community health workers, patient experience navigators, social workers, Registered Nurses, psychiatrists, and pharmacists. Together this team is responsible for providing and coordinating holistic, patient-centered care for an intimate panel of patients with complex medical, behavioral health, and social needs in an in-home and community-based model.
As an Accompany Health BH APC, you will care for patients primarily virtually via video, telephone, or text, but also in the home and community as needed as we expand our care model. You will primarily be seeing patients in our Bridge Care program, which may involve clinical diagnosis, treatment including medications, and coordination of care for patients with severe mental illness (SMI), including substance use disorders. You will also help establish our Advanced Behavioral Health pathway(s), as we discover the right way to support our patients with SMI who are either linked to community providers or have had difficulty following in the community. You will participate in our weekly Behavioral Health Huddle and our Behavioral Health Case Conferences, and may be asked to participate in our Multidisciplinary Case Conferences with the entire care team. We anticipate that 80% of this role will be clinically seeing patients and 20% will be administrative in non-direct patient care roles.
