Virtual / Telemedicine Pulmonary Medicine: Critical Care Job in Kansas City, Missouri
This Pulmonary Medicine: Critical Care position is offered as a virtual/telemedicine arrangement, structured under a contract basis. You would see patients remotely, working within the licensing requirements of the states involved rather than reporting to a single site. This same role is also listed as available on a contract basis in a non-virtual capacity, so the virtual structure described here is one of the ways it can be arranged.
There is no patient call rotation and no emergency department call associated with this position, which may support a more predictable schedule alongside the flexibility typical of remote practice. The financial offering for this listing is noted as open, meaning compensation terms are set through discussion rather than a fixed posted figure.
Candidates should hold board certification, with MD or DO training from a U.S. medical school, and current U.S. work authorization. The listing is open to physicians across a range of experience levels, from recently trained to very experienced. The role is based in Kansas City, Missouri, and is offered as a permanent position.
