Intermountain Healthcare needs 1 BC/BE adult psychiatrist to join another outpatient psychiatrist. Position is outpatient medicine with only one weekend per month of inpatient coverage. Work a four day clinic week. Physician will assist in the management of patients with spine and pain disorders with concomitant psychiatric illness. Interest/ability in providing outpatient chemical dependency consultation/direction care for chemical dependency, especially in the setting of chronic pain. Interest/ability in leading/directing the cognitive behavioral therapy component of a functional restoration program for spine and pain disorders is highly desirable. We anticipate our practice need to be primarily in the outpatient clinical practice, with the potential for assisting in a structured outpatient functional restoration program as our program develops. This is a key position, and in some cases the psychiatrist will function as the point person. The spine program is based on a one-stop-shopping concept. Psych will be involved to perform psych eval if that is what is determined as a key need or if they are chemically dependant. This component of the position will start out as 1 day per week, growing to 3 days per week, but this will take some time as the program evolves. The spine center would be flexible as to when the physician would see patients and do consults. Clinic is fully staffed and well managed. Support staff consists of an APRN, MA, 2 receptionists, LCSW provider and clinic manager. Employment with the Intermountain Medical Group. Salary guarantee with transition to productivity and bonuses. FullIntermountain benefits. Relocation provided.
