Job Description:

About Monogram Kidney Care We deliver access to specialty care for patients with kidney disease where it previously did not exist. We are dedicated to improving the well-being, quality of life and health outcomes for our patients. Monogram Kidney Care supports patients suffering from Chronic Kidney Disease and End Stage Renal Disease by forming deep rooted relationships and preparing them both emotionally and physically for the challenges of managing kidney disease. Monogram Kidney Care uses next generation artificial intelligence algorithms to predict necessary and timely care to promote the delay of kidney disease progression, seamless transitions to dialysis and/or pre-emptive kidney transplant. We then utilize in-home visits or telemedicine to build meaningful relationships with our patients that drive positive behavior change and optimize our patients' health outcomes.Position: NephrologistMonogram Kidney Care is seeking a full-time nephrologist to join the team due to rapid nationwide opportunities to treat members with CKD and ESRD. - Treatment and oversight will occur primarily through both telehealth nationally and locally in person. This is 100% nephrology, with the ability to connect with CKD and ESRD patients needing urgent care and engagement with patients who are seeing a nephrologist for the first time. - This is an opportunity to practice nephrology in a forward-looking, evidence-based environment with ample growth opportunity, alongside nephrologist committed to raising renal care outcomes nationwide. - Monogram nephrologists are quality-driven physicians who apply their clinical expertise in a managed care, population health context. By practicing at Monogram Kidney Care, they serve patients across the country. They also engage in population health management in a sophisticated, outcomes-driven manner that promotes palliative care where clinically appropriate and focuses on patient education, autonomy, and quality of life. Monogram nephrologists share a passion for raising quality outcomes for health plan members suffering from kidney disease. They practice in a way that promotes patient engagement long before ESRD, resulting in delayed disease progression. In the case of kidney failure, the focus is informed patient choice, permanent vascular access and planned dialysis starts where clinically appropriate, and close medical management of non-dialysis patients where dialysis is not the clinically appropriate choice. This job is ideal for nephrologists who are forward-looking and embrace the trends toward telehealth and value-based care that rewards outcomes, rather than utilization. - Monogram nephrologists have experience in geriatrics and end-of-life issues, advocating for conservative care where appropriate and where evidence-based criteria show that dialysis will not by comparison necessarily extend duration of life or increase quality of life. - They treat patients and follow health plan members with kidney disease and related co-morbidities. - Monogram nephrologists may work remotely from home, unless needed to see patients in person locally. As part of working at Monogram's national practice, they will be licensed in multiple states after joining the company. Monogram nephrologists work on an employed basis, full time, five days per week.Roles and Responsibilities
