Position: Advanced Practice Provider
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
“Working at Monogram Health has reignited my passion as a Nurse Practitioner. Finally, I can spend the right amount of time with a patient to develop an individualized care plan, without the pressure to maximize volume. I’m developing deeper relationships with patients and breaking down barriers to care.” - Dylan Lempp, DNP, APRN, FNP-C
As an Advanced Practice Provider, you are a Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant who provides compassionate care to a small panel of patients. The panel size and our value-based model allows you to build trusting relationships and care plans that improve the quality of life for our patients.
Monogram Health is a rapidly growing company that employs hundreds of clinicians across the country. Our mission is to transform the way health care is delivered for those with kidney disease so they can lead healthier, happier, and more fulfilling lives.
This transformation is urgently needed. In our healthcare system, the patient has too often become secondary due to processes and incentives that don’t positively impact the patient for the long term.
The Advanced Practice Provider is a key member of an integrated Care Team which includes a Registered Nurse and a Social Worker. The patients we serve often struggle with multiple serious diseases. Registered Nurses help patients improve their quality of life in the home and slow the progression of kidney disease, enabling positive health outcomes.
