Our mission is to help seniors overcome intricate health and social challenges, improve their long-term well-being, and maximize their independence. We believe every senior deserves to have a dedicated advocate in their corner.
We are pioneering a new care model that goes beyond episodic treatment to provide continuous, longitudinal support. By prioritizing preventative care and addressing social determinants of health, our goal is to empower patients to remain independent, achieve optimal well-being, and stay out of the hospital whenever possible.
To achieve this, we are building an advocacy-first telehealth platform to democratize access to high-quality care and reach patients right where they are. Our physicians and Health Advocates work together to help patients untangle the U.S. healthcare system, overcome barriers, and make confident, informed decisions. By combining clinical expertise with hands-on navigation and resource linkage, we give every patient the knowledgeable ally they deserve.
As a Careway Physician, you will conduct brief, structured telehealth visits to establish care for our health advocacy programs. These intake visits are the foundation of our service, allowing us to identify high-risk conditions, uncover unmet social needs, and confirm patient eligibility for ongoing advocacy.
This role focuses on assessment and oversight rather than primary diagnosing or prescribing. You will evaluate patients holistically and collaborate seamlessly with our RN Health Advocates to ensure patients are enrolled safely and compliantly into the right level of support.
