Responsibilities/Job Description:

Fairview is seeking an Advanced Practice Provider to provide psychiatry services in support of the M Health Fairview Collaborative Care Psychiatry model. In this model, Fairview primary care providers (PCPs) refer patients to the CCPS based on diagnostic questions, complexity or instability and the need for a specialty consultation. The Advanced Practice Provider sees the patients for a diagnostic evaluation and the option for one or more additional follow-up appointments to initiate /stabilize meds as needed. Most patients are then returned to the referring PCP for ongoing primary psychiatric management. In addition, the psychiatric provider is available for provider-to-provider consultations both face-to-face and via the shared EMR.
