We have included information about the organization to provide context for the role.

Medical Director Services was founded in 2016 when SNFs were shifting a focus on value while treating residents with a higher level of acuity. MDS PC emphasizes quality and customer service, and aims to treat in place when possible to reduce unnecessary hospitalizations.

MDS PC is experienced in providing medical services in an SNF setting with an understanding of how to deliver effective medical care in an SNF and knowledge of the survey process. We currently provide services in facilities with specialty units and provide appropriate medical personnel with experience in treating residents on a vent. It is standard for our providers to coordinate with surrounding hospitals to ensure continuity of care.

We focus on reducing the number of medications and meeting requirements with narcotics and psych meds. If certain medications are deemed appropriate, we ensure documentation so the facility will not be cited.
