Description
Make a difference where it matters most by providing life-changing, community-based care to our most vulnerable seniors. As part of our mission-driven interdisciplinary team, our Primary Care Physicians can build deeper, long-term relationships with fewer patients than in a traditional healthcare model, allowing you to see the impact of your care every day.
Our value-based PACE program allows our per-diem Primary Care Physicians to make supplemental income on a flexible schedule based on business needs, all while providing truly comprehensive, holistic care, so you can focus on what really matters: your patients.
We also care about our providers. That’s why we offer:
- Competitive compensation
- Malpractice/tail coverage
- Growth opportunities to become a medical director
- 401K savings + match
- Regular hours, flexible between 8am-5pm, Monday through Friday, including home visits
Essential job duties include:
- Perform comprehensive in-person assessments, leading and partnering with the interdisciplinary team (IDT) to develop a personalized care plan for each participant
- Coordinate discharge for acute, short-term, and long-term placement
- No hospital rounds – focus on comprehensive care, seeing an average of 8 patients a day
Job requirements include:
- Successful completion of a residency program accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education
- Master's or doctorate Degree
- Board Certification preferred
- Active state physician license without restrictions
- State CDS certification and DEA registration
- Must obtain CPR and First Aid certification within 180 days of hire and maintain certification thereafter; CPR and First Aid certification upon hire preferred
We are seeking Primary Care Physicians in Internal Medicine, Family Medicine, Emergency Medicine or Geriatrics. Must be eligible for enrollment to provide services to Medicare and Medi-Cal participants. Board certification preferred.
If you’re ready to join a healthcare team that values both its patients and its providers, we’d love to hear from you.

About this role
WelbeHealth's PACE program in Los Angeles offers primary care physicians a fundamentally different practice model centered on senior care. Rather than high-volume patient throughput, you'd see approximately eight patients daily and build sustained relationships with a smaller panel, allowing you to observe the real outcomes of your clinical decisions. The role emphasizes comprehensive, community-based care delivered by an interdisciplinary team, with your responsibilities including in-person assessments, personalized care planning, and discharge coordination—but notably without hospital rounds.
The position accommodates various career stages and preferences. You can work as a full-time provider with regular Monday-to-Friday hours between 8am and 5pm, or pursue per-diem work on a flexible schedule for supplemental income. WelbeHealth covers malpractice and tail insurance, offers 401K matching, and provides a pathway to medical director roles. The company seeks physicians from Internal Medicine, Family Medicine, Emergency Medicine, or Geriatrics backgrounds with an active state license, board certification (preferred), state CDS certification, and DEA registration. You'll need to be Medicare and Medi-Cal eligible and obtain CPR and First Aid certification within six months of hire.
