Physician

Lifespark Medical Group Physicians are consultative subspecialists with deep expertise in geriatrics and complex care management. They serve as clinical experts and consulting specialists within an interdisciplinary team that includes Nurse Practitioners (NPs), RNs, LPNs, Social Workers and Pharmacists.

 

This is a purely clinical role focused on high-touch, value-based care — not high-volume practice. Physicians typically see 4–6 clients per day (in-home or in senior living settings) and spend the rest of their time collaborating with the care team to deliver exceptional outcomes. The Lifespark Medical Group serves highly complex seniors under the umbrella of primary care and urgent response services while emphasizing harm prevention, reduced hospitalizations, and improved quality-of-life outcomes. As a team we do three things for our patients:

Cure: restore them to better health and wellness

Palliate: shift focus to what matters and symptom control when quality and quantity of life conflict

Comfort: transition to meaningful late life experiences by adding an integrated hospice capability to the team at the right time

 

Position: Physician

RN Salary: $234,000 - $329,000 annually, depending on experience

Lifespark is a complete senior health company headquartered in St. Louis Park, Minnesota. Since 2004, we’ve been helping seniors stay healthy, navigate their health care options with confidence, and live fuller, more independent lives as they age. That’s where our people come in – from accounting and health technology to front-line nurses, advanced practice professionals, caregivers and everything in between, we are all invested entrepreneurs focused on helping people age magnificently.

 

What You’ll Do:

• Conduct three primary types of visits:
1. New Client Visits – Initial evaluations for new clients as part of a comprehensive team-based geriatric assessment. Training will include utilizing a proven 5-step story telling model. Outputs include personalized acute and chronic care plans that align with prognoses and individual wishes.
2. Consultative Visits –as requested by NPs for scenarios such as prominent polypharmacy, challenging advance care planning, misalignment with subspecialty plans, or family/client requesting a physician.
3. Same-Day Telehealth Visits – a dedicated portion of FTE is allocated to supporting urgent response consults. Work directly via telehealth with our triage team and on-site mobile urgent responder (MUR). The MUR is a nurse trained to do comprehensive assessments in the home and can provide phlebotomy, intravenous fluids, EKGs and select medications.
• Participate in 1–2 weekly work-remote primary care team meetings to discuss new clients and current clients transitioning to/from the hospital or transitional care units.
• Build strong relationships with clients, families, and team members while promoting evidence-based, person-centered care.
• Collaborate with NPs who serve as the primary care providers for clients under your consultation.
• Blend telehealth and in-person care delivery across senior living communities and client homes.

 

Why This Role Is Different:

• Truly clinical: focus on medicine, relationships, and decision-making — not paperwork or volume.
• Value-based model: success is measured by client experience and value-based business success, not patient quotas.
• Top-of-license team structure: NPs and support staff manage majority of primary care and contractual business quality work; you provide the high-level clinical insight and oversight.
• Unique support tools: Current electronic health record contains integrated artificial intelligence and coding tools to help reduce time spent on charting and value-based coding
• Balanced schedule: 4–6 clients a day, meaningful patient time, and strong support from the Lifespark network.
• Opportunity for growth: potential for leadership roles over time, though t
