Full Job Description
Description

We are seeking a dedicated, patient-centered Physician Assistant to join our clinical team. This position is located at a federally designated Health Professional Shortage Area (HPSA) site with active NHSC site credentials. Clinicians hired into this role can directly pursue student loan repayment options through active NHSC federal service cycles.

Loan Repayment Support Notice: Nao Medical deeply values our clinicians' service to the community. We strictly adhere to federal policy and do not reduce compensation, benefits, or advancement opportunities for providers participating in incentive programs. While Nao Medical cannot guarantee government selection or loan forgiveness, we provide a structured Loan Repayment Support Packet-including fast-tracked site verification responses through My BHW-to maximize your application's success.

What You'll Earn + What You'll Get
  • Competitive Base Salary Range: $125,000 - $188,000/year (or hourly equivalent depending on schedule structure).
  • Performance Bonus: Up to $45,000 annual incentive potential.
  • Immediate Transition Assistance: Up to a $5,000 sign-on bonus to ease the transition from graduation to practice.
  • Full Benefits Package: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance.
  • Financial Security: 401(k) retirement plan with competitive company match.
  • Time to Recharge: Generous Paid Time Off (PTO) and paid leave programs.
  • Professional Development: $1,000 annual CME allowance and internal leadership training.
  • The NHSC Multiplier Advantage: Located at a fully certified NHSC branch, giving you direct access to apply for tax-free student loan repayment options through federal service cycles.
  • Clinician Resiliency Support: Access to team-based clinic support (front desk, mid-office, and dedicated medical assistants) so you never carry the administrative flow alone.
  • Burnout Prevention: Benefit from an established 30-to-90 day priority support transition period, regular 1-on-1 operational coaching, and AI-enabled documentation workflows designed to completely eliminate after-hours charting.

  • Conduct physical exams, screenings, preventive care, and appropriate diagnostic workups.
  • Document clinical care accurately and promptly within the EMR.
  • Coordinate with care teams, medical assistants, front desk, and referral partners within our comprehensive system of care.
