Nurse Practitioner — Telehealth

We're building a telehealth practice supporting both Medicare and non-Medicare patients. Nurse practitioners in this role conduct independent clinical telehealth encounters, evaluating patients, determining medical necessity, and issuing orders within their full scope of practice. This is a flat-fee, per-encounter contract role, not a staff position. Training on call conduct and documentation is provided.

Responsibilities

• Conduct independent telehealth encounters with patients

• Perform clinical evaluation and document medical necessity per payer documentation standards

• Issue orders and prescriptions within scope of practice and state law

• Maintain complete, compliant clinical documentation for each encounter

• Respond to documentation requests in the event of audit or claims review

Requirements

• Active, unrestricted NP license with full practice authority in your state

• Currently employed by or contracted with an agency that provides in-home services strongly preferred

• Must have your own EMR, with the ability to add PeteDME's clinical templates

• Completed any applicable transition-to-practice hours required for independent practice

• Active NPI number

• Board certification in good standing

• No exclusions from federal healthcare programs (OIG/SAM)

• Current malpractice coverage (occurrence-form or claims-made with tail coverage), or willingness to obtain

• Comfortable with telehealth platforms and independent, high-volume encounter work

• Prior experience with Medicare and commercial payer documentation requirements a plus

Contract Structure

• Independent contractor (1099) — not an employment relationship

• Written agreement, fixed term

• Flat fee per completed encounter, set in advance, not tied to clinical outcome or ordering decision

• Credentialing and license verification required prior to first encounter

Please submit your resume/CV along with the states in which you currently hold active NP licensure, and answers to the screening questions below.
