Job description

Dane Street is looking for Psychiatrists to join our Government Services division for a new Telehealth opportunity that has significant hours available to schedule immediately! Dane Street’s Government Services division was formed in 2024, and our physicians perform Medical Disability Exams (MDEs) for Veterans of the United States Military. We are working with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to address the backlog of these exams. These MDEs are crucial in the VA process for determining the benefits Veterans can receive because of service-connected health issues.

Here are some key highlights of this important work:

Remote: This opportunity to work in the telehealth space allows you to work remotely.
Objectivity: Focus solely on objective evaluations. You will not treat or diagnose patients.
Flexibility: Create schedules based on your availability without impacting your existing practice.

Thorough orientation and training are provided, and all scheduling is coordinated for you. Our physician panel is comprised of independent contract reviewers (1099).

JOB SUMMARY
