About Withings Medical Group
Withings is a global leader in connected health devices — from smart blood pressure monitors and scales to sleep and activity trackers. Withings Medical Group extends this mission into clinical care. The ACCESS program integrates device-generated data, AI-driven insights, and a dedicated virtual care team to manage cardiometabolic conditions — hypertension, dyslipidemia, CKD, obesity, and diabetes — meeting patients where they are, in their homes, across up to 50 states.
The Role in One Sentence:
As a Nurse Practitioner on the ACCESS care team, you will deliver virtual, evidence-based cardiometabolic care to patients across California and the West Coast — working at the intersection of virtual care, digital health, and value-based medicine, in close partnership with our Medical Director and clinical team. This role extends our clinical coverage into the Pacific time zone and brings California licensure to the team as ACCESS grows.
This is a part-time 1099 independent contractor role, designed to convert to a full-time salaried position as the ACCESS program scales. We expect this transition to occur as the program grows toward 1,000+ patients, contingent on program growth and mutual fit.
What you'll do:
Clinical care
- Conduct virtual medical evaluations via video, phone, and asynchronous forms — confirming diagnoses, assessing for target organ damage, and documenting baseline metrics.
- Create and manage holistic, evidence-based care plans for patients with ACCESS-defined conditions: obesity, dyslipidemia, hypertension, ASCVD, mild-to-moderate CKD, and pre/diabetes.
- Prescribe, titrate, and renew medications per ACCESS clinical protocols — in California under standardized procedures with the Medical Director, and in other states according to their practice authority (Full Practice Authority or Collaborative Practice Agreements).
- Manage device-triggered Red Alerts (e.g., BP >180/110) during Pacific time zone business hours — triaging patients for ER referral or immediate titration adjustment.
- Provide warm handoffs to referring clinicians in urgent situations, including new renal failure presentations.
Documentation & risk capture
- Document all patient interactions — synchronous and asynchronous — in the EHR with accurate ICD-10 coding.
- Capture comorbidities accurately (e.g., CKD Stage 3b) to ensure correct reimbursement at the CKM rate rather than the standard eCKM rate.
- Prepare PCP care coordination reports to maintain the ACCESS-model partnership with referring physicians.
Team & program contribution
- Follow established ACCESS titration algorithms and clinical protocols, and flag opportunities to improve them based on what you see in practice.
- Work closely with the Medical Director and fellow NPs to ensure consistent, high-quality care across time zones.
- Provide feedback on app-based care tools, behavioral support content, and remote monitoring integration to continuously improve the patient experience.
Requirements
What you'll bring
- Active California NP license in good standing (required), plus an active California NP furnishing number and DEA registration.
- Willingness to obtain licensure in additional target states within 90 days of start; existing multistate licenses are a plus.
- Board certification through ANCC or AANP as a Family, Adult-Gerontology Primary Care, or Adult-Gerontology Acute Care NP.
- Minimum 2 years of post-licensure clinical experience in primary care, internal medicine, endocrinology, cardiology, or geriatrics with a strong command of cardiometabolic conditions.
- Demonstrated comfort with telehealth or digital care delivery — you thrive in a screen-based, asynchronous-forward environment.
- Strong documentation discipline and familiarity with EHR systems.
- Excellent independent clinical judgment — you are comfortable making decisions without a physician in the room.
- Based in California or elsewhere in the Pacific time zone, and available to work Pacific time zone business hours.
Bonus points for
- Experience with value-based care, CMS quality measures, or ACO/care management programs.
- Familiarity with CKM (Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic) conditions and GLP-1 therapy management.
- Experience practicing under standardized procedures in California or Collaborative Practice Agreements in other states.
- Spanish language proficiency — our platform serves both English and Spanish speakers.
- Additional active licenses in other Western states (e.g., Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Arizona).
Benefits
- Part-time 1099 contract to start, estimated at 20 hours per week, with a competitive hourly rate.
- A structured path to full-time conversion as ACCESS scales toward 1,000+ patients — this is a growth opportunity, not a permanent contractor role.
- Fully remote, based in California or the Pacific time zone. Your schedule will follow Pacific time zone business hours, extending ACCESS coverage to patients on the West Coast.
- Direct access to senior leadership and a real voice in how ACCESS care is delivered as the program grows.
- Upon conversion to full-time: full Withings benefits package including health coverage, 401(k) match, wellness reimbursements, and access to Withings products.
