Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant (PRN) - In-Home Health Assessments

Responsibilities

About the Role

During a visit that can last up to one hour, Matrix providers review and observe a member’s current health, medical history, medication adherence, social environment and other risks. This provides unmatched insight into a member’s overall health and well-being that can be difficult to capture during routine office visits. The Matrix Comprehensive Health Assessment (CHA) helps to improve quality of care and allows us to potentially close multiple care gaps with a single visit. Our providers:

Conduct adult / geriatric assessments to include medical history, diagnosis and treatment, health education, physician referrals, case management referrals, follow-up and clear documentation according to Matrix guidelines and protocols
Administer and order point of care and lab-based testing as needed
Work with physicians, case managers, social workers, family members, key caregivers, and ancillary medical personnel as appropriate
Collaborate with Primary Care Physician (PCP) on patient education and follow up as necessary
Provide services at the member’s place of residence which can be in their homes or Skilled Nursing Facilities
