Telos Health Systems is a clinical service organization reshaping medical and behavioral health care in skilled nursing and assisted living. Built on the principle of build with purpose, serve with heart, lead with integrity, Telos surrounds clinicians with the technology, playbooks, and clinical support to deliver excellence in some of healthcare's most underserved settings.
Telos Health Systems is seeking an experienced Advanced Practice Provider to serve as an in-house SNF-ist, providing general medicine care to geriatric residents in Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNFs) and Assisted Living Facilities (ALFs). This role is ideal for a clinically confident provider who values autonomy, collaboration, and making a meaningful impact in long-term care.
At Telos, we offer more than a job — we offer a purpose-driven career. Our APPs play a critical role in improving residents' quality of life while reducing unnecessary hospitalizations.

◆ Real clinical autonomy. You serve as the facility's primary internal medicine provider, with the independence to manage resident care directly.
◆ Supportive, collaborative teams. Work alongside supportive leadership, interdisciplinary care teams, medical directors, and attending physicians.
◆ Reduce unnecessary hospitalizations. The SNF-ist model is built around early intervention and monthly stability visits, keeping residents out of the hospital and in their community.
◆ Underserved population, meaningful impact. Skilled nursing and assisted living residents are among the most underserved populations in primary care. The work matters.
◆ Flexible scheduling, W-2 stability. Pay-per-encounter, fee-for-service compensation paired with full W-2 benefits and flexible scheduling.
◆ A purpose-driven career. More than a job — Telos provides company equipment, hybrid charting tools, and administrative support so you can focus on patients.
What you'll do
◆ Serve as the facility's primary internal medicine provider (SNF-ist).
◆ Manage care for short-term rehab and long-term care residents.
◆ Perform comprehensive health assessments, physical exams, and diagnoses.
◆ Manage acute and chronic conditions following established protocols.
◆ Prescribe medications and treatments as appropriate and within scope.
◆ Conduct monthly stability visits for long-term residents.
◆ Evaluate residents with changes in condition.
◆ Participate in Advanced Care Planning.
◆ Collaborate with interdisciplinary teams, medical directors, and attending physicians.
◆ Complete accurate documentation and CPT coding.
◆ Facilitate referrals to specialists and other healthcare providers.
What we're looking for
◆ Active, unencumbered Physician Assistant (PA) or Nurse Practitioner (APRN/APN) license in the applicable state.
◆ Current DEA registration.
◆ Master's Degree from an accredited program
◆ Strong communication and clinical leadership skills.
◆ Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced environment.
◆ Preferred: at least one year of experience in a Skilled Nursing Facility or long-term care setting.
◆ Preferred: experience caring for geriatric populations.
Compensation & Benefits
W-2 employment with pay-per-encounter, fee-for-service compensation and flexible scheduling. Comprehensive benefits including medical and prescription coverage (Blue Cross Blue Shield), dental and vision (UnitedHealthcare), a 401(k) through Nationwide, voluntary Aflac benefits, 15 days PTO, six paid holidays, occurrence-based malpractice coverage ($1M/$3M), a $1,000 annual CEU, DEA, and licensure allowance, mileage reimbursement, and company-provided equipment, including a Microsoft Surface Pro. Detailed earnings projection and full benefits package shared during the interview process.
