Practice medicine where it can matter most: in the home.
Clover Health is looking for exceptional, mission-driven physicians to join our field-based In-Home Care team. In this role, you will care for Medicare Advantage members with complex medical, functional, and social needs — many of whom are older, medically fragile, and at high risk for avoidable complications.
This is not transactional care. This is relationship-centered, outcomes-driven medicine.
As a Field-Based Staff Physician, you will be accountable for the health outcomes of a defined panel of members. You will meet patients where they are, understand the realities of their home environment, identify risks early, and help coordinate the right care at the right time. You will have the autonomy to practice thoughtfully, the support of an interdisciplinary team, and the technology to act with greater insight and precision.
We are seeking physicians who are highly accountable, clinically strong, operationally effective, and deeply committed to doing what is best for vulnerable seniors.
Why this role mattersMany of the patients we serve are navigating multiple chronic conditions, recent hospitalizations, fragmented care, limited resources, and the challenges that come with aging. For these members, the home is often where the most important clinical information lives.
In this role, you will have the opportunity to see the full picture: the medications on the kitchen table, the caregiver dynamics, the fall risks, the barriers to follow-up, and the early warning signs that may never surface in a clinic visit.
Your work will directly influence whether members recover safely, remain stable, avoid unnecessary hospitalizations, close care gaps, and feel supported by a care team that genuinely knows them.
