Full Time
Columbus, Ohio

AndHealth is on a mission to radically improve access and outcomes for the most challenging chronic health conditions with the goal of making world-class specialty care accessible and affordable to all. We partner with health systems, community health centers, plans, and employers to remove barriers to care to ensure all people have access to the care they deserve.

We are looking for an experienced dermatologist to join our specialist team as we continue to expand our offerings to patients. Evaluating the patients’ skin health condition and analyzing their medical history will comprise your primary day-to-day dermatologist responsibilities. You’ll examine patients and determine dermatological treatments (e.g. medication, non-invasive surgeries). You’ll also monitor and report on treatment progress and refer patients to other specialists if needed. This role will be supported by a dedicated team onsite and from our headquarters.

What you’ll do in the role:

• Provide dermatology co-management of patients with providers at AndHealth, community health centers, and other sites on a scheduled basis (synchronous and asynchronous). Clinical scope includes:
  • Assisting with diagnostic challenges and fine-tuning approach.
  • Training advanced practice clinicians in the care of patients with skin conditions.
  • Discussing diagnostic and therapeutic next steps.
  • Triaging for referral to dermatology telehealth visit or possible need for in-person visit.
  • Introducing the idea of multiple co-occurring skin conditions possibly confounding treatment.
  • Educating on root causes and how to address them incrementally.
  • Providing education on how to approach psychopathology in skin conditions and how to introduce stress reduction techniques.
  • Discussing integrating other technology into therapeutic next steps. (Apps that support sleep, diet, meditation, etc.)
• Conduct on-demand dermatology telehealth visits directly with patients. This includes:
  • Skin checks: reassurance versus referral for biopsy.
  • Unknown rashes:
    • treatment (pending patient state location).
    • triage for biopsy, labs, and in-person evaluation.
  • Known rashes:
    • follow-ups.
    • treatment monitoring.
    • adding integrative approaches in tiny steps.
• Conduct patient-specific dermatology case reviews and, if needed, participate in case review discussions with other clinical staff to provide recommendations that support decision-making for the patient’s care plan.
