Specialty:	Hospitalist
Location:	Little Rock
Organization:	Baptist Health Medical Center - Little Rock
Description:	We are seeking a BC/BE Internist who is interested in practicing as a Hospitalist with the Internal Medicine Associates – Hospitalists Group.
Expanded Description:	This group is an affiliate of Baptist Health. The candidate will be joining an existing team of 5 Hospitalists. This group was the first Hospitalist group established in Arkansas. We are looking to add a new physician to the group because of the growing number of primary care physicians who are referring 100% of their admissions to our group. This group practices as a solid team and decisions are made by the group as a whole. The schedule will continue to evolve as the group grows, but the recent rotation has been 4 weeks on and 1 week off. Each doctor has been taking after hour call only one evening per week. Admissions are rotated so that each physician only takes admissions every other day. Although it varies, the average census per doctor is approximately 10-18 inpatients. The compensation for this opportunity is a net income model. This group has a very high income for IM/Hospitalists. The overhead for the group is minimal. There are excellent benefits offered including health, dental and retirement. Our physicians are part of the largest physician network in the state so their malpractice premiums are considerably lower than the norm. The group has a Practice Management Administrator who oversees all the billing and day to day issues. Any needs or questions that the doctors have are handled by the PMA. The group also has access to a certified coding specialist. The hospital utilizes an EMR which the physicians have access to from home. The physicians also have access to their patient's test results etc., via their PDA’s which can be used either while rounding or while out of the hospital.
