Academic Telemedicine: Internal Medicine Job in Des Moines, Iowa
This internal medicine telemedicine opportunity, based in Des Moines, Iowa, is offered as an academic arrangement — one of several practice structures under which this permanent position is available, including options such as employed, contract, part-time, and virtual arrangements. In an academic setting, clinical practice is typically combined with teaching and often research, with compensation structured through the institution and advancement following an academic track. This structure may suit you if you value having residents or students involved in your clinical work alongside institutional resources.
The role carries no patient call and no emergency department call, so on-call responsibilities are not part of this position. Compensation is organized under structures such as income guarantee, straight employment, or an employment agreement with production bonus, with the financial offering for this listing set at the national average tier — presented here as the listed offering rather than a guaranteed figure.
Physicians at various experience levels, including those currently in training, are considered, and both board-certified and board-eligible candidates are accepted, alongside MD and DO training backgrounds.
