Family Medicine/Geriatric Physician - Central Ohio

We Strive for Quality Care

At OhioHealth, we recognize that the current healthcare environment is changing, and we know that to be successful we need to be the value delivery leader in central Ohio and the surrounding region. In order to provide the highest quality care for patients, we must be willing to evolve and grow. The partnership with ChenMed provides an opportunity to assist in creating a healthier community.

Our Partnership and Opportunity

OhioHealth and ChenMed are partnering to bring dedicated care for the senior population to Columbus through three new primary care practices that will serve low-to-moderate income seniors. These unique practices will look to transform care by empowering our OhioHealth Physician Group providers to focus on wellness, prevention, and frequent visits, made possible by a reduced physician patient panel. Come be a part of our comprehensive model of care that offers a coordinated approach with Specialist services, and more time with your patients in a high touch environment.

OhioHealth and ChenMed are hiring primary care physicians to join a dedicated staff focused on serving the central Ohio community.

• Hired physicians can be trained in family medicine, internal medicine, or geriatrics.

ChenMed Results

ChenMed has built a replicable, successful model by putting primary care physicians in charge of outcomes and patient experience.

• 189 minutes of patient face time with doctor (9x the national average)
• 28% fewer hospital admissions
• 33% fewer emergency room visits
• Top decile patient satisfaction scores
• Top decile clinical quality metrics

Today’s complex healthcare environment requires physicians and hospitals to work together to achieve excellence in clinical quality, patient safety and service quality. One of the ways we achieve that kind of partnership is through the OhioHealth Physician Group (OPG), a medical group of OhioHealth physicians, advanced practice providers and associates.

We value the expertise of our strong physician network. We seek out your ideas for improving the patient experience and implement them. It’s one of the reasons why we are regularly ranked in the top 10 percent of Press Ganey’s hospital experience survey, which measures physician engagement and satisfaction.

You can contribute to a culture that has repeatedly made OhioHealth one of the Fortune “100 Best Companies to Work For.” And you can collaborate with MD Anderson Cancer Network-certified physicians, use telemedicine to seek the real-time advice of experts across the system, be a part of our state-of-the-art Neuroscience facility, Level 1 Trauma Center or Primary Stroke Center, or find your fit in any of our ambulatory or specialized care sites across the central region of the state.

At OhioHealth, we want to do more than support the careers of our physicians — we want to grow their talents and help them reach their highest aspirations. We see your education not as an expense, but as a strategic investment in the health system.

We know growth isn’t limited to just education, so we rely on the voices and leadership of our physicians. We have Clinical Guidance Councils, a Physician Diversity Workforce Group, and the OhioHealth Physicians Leadership Institute to help you lead, grow and innovate in all facets of your career.
