Each provider's panel size is specific to their practice and setting. Primary care physicians may be responsibility for supervision of, or collaboration with, primary care physician assistants and/or nurse practitioner providers. Physicians are expected to provide clinical oversight and to participate in peer review of other primary care providers through periodic chart reviews. Primary care physicians will regularly attend primary care staff meetings departmental meetings and medical staff meetings. A full-time provider is required to work a minimum of 80 hours per pay period. Duties may include evening and weekend working hours.
