Our client is seeking a full-time, contract Clinical Pharmacist with strong cardiology experience to support value-based care programs. This role focuses on optimizing guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT), supporting medication titration, improving medication adherence, and collaborating closely with nurses and cardiology providers to improve outcomes for high-risk cardiac patients. This is not a dispensing role — the pharmacist functions as a clinical partner embedded within the care team.

• Review patient medication profiles for cardiology populations — heart failure, coronary artery disease, atrial fibrillation, hypertension, and overlapping chronic conditions such as CKD.
• Evaluate appropriateness of GDMT based on ACC/AHA guidelines and payer quality programs.
• Identify gaps in therapy, contraindications, drug interactions, and adherence barriers.
• Make evidence-based recommendations for medication initiation, optimization, and titration, in collaboration with providers and nursing staff.

• Conduct telephonic medication reviews and patient education.
• Educate patients on purpose, benefits, side effects, and expectations of cardiac medications.
• Reinforce adherence and lifestyle considerations; help patients recognize red-flag symptoms.

• Work closely with RN Care Managers and Nurse Navigators to align medication plans with care goals.
• Communicate recommendations clearly to cardiologists and advanced practice providers.
• Participate in interdisciplinary case reviews and care planning.
• Document recommendations and patient interactions promptly in the care management platform / EMR.

• Contribute to performance on medication-related quality measures.
• Help reduce medication-related adverse events and prevent avoidable utilization.
• Apply sound clinical judgment within established clinical protocols.

A clinically confident cardiology pharmacist who is comfortable working telephonically, communicates complex clinical information in a patient-friendly way, and thrives inside a nurse-led, interdisciplinary care model.

• Strong cardiology clinical background and comfort with GDMT decision-making.
• Confident, professional communicator with cardiology providers and APPs.
• Patient-centered communication style — clear, empathetic, and clinically accurate.
• Comfortable in a fully remote, telephonic, non-dispensing clinical role.

• PharmD
• Active Texas pharmacist license in good standing
• Multi-state pharmacist licensure required (remote role, not restricted to Texas residency)
• Minimum 3–5 years of clinical experience with a strong cardiology focus
• Demonstrated working knowledge of GDMT and cardiac medication titration
• Comfort working within a nurse-led care management model
• Strong telephonic patient communication skills
• Ability to interact professionally and confidently with cardiology providers
• Experience engaging directly with patients
• Experience collaborating with physicians and advanced practice providers
• Time zone compatibility — must be able to work during the client's required business…
