Primary Care Physician: Carmel, IN
Carmel
Succession
Full time
Onsite
An established, MDVIP-affiliated primary care practice in Carmel, Indiana, is seeking an Internal Medicine or Family Medicine physician. The practice is 15 minutes north of Indianapolis and has a loyal, longstanding member base.
This isn't a traditional high-volume primary care job. You'll join an established practice with an existing member panel, practicing the MDVIP personalized-care model as an employed physician with Ascension Medical Group. Ascension, a national nonprofit Catholic health system, handles the business and administrative side of the practice, so your time goes to medicine, not overhead.
How the Role Works
Employment: Full-time, salaried, employed position within a nonprofit health system
Practice setting: Outpatient only. You'll join one physician, with no hospital duties and no RVUs.
Schedule: Monday–Friday, 8:00 a.m.–4:00 p.m.
- Call: 24/7 member access with minimal call volume, and the possibility of sharing call with another physician
How the MDVIP Model Works
Members pay an annual fee for MDVIP's comprehensive wellness program. It includes an in-depth annual exam, advanced screenings and a personalized wellness plan.
Panels are intentionally small, capped at 300–600 members, compared with the thousands in a traditional practice.
Appointments run 30 to 60 minutes for thorough wellness exams and acute care visits.
- Insurance continues to be billed for medically necessary care beyond the wellness program.
What This Offers
Deep, ongoing relationships with a smaller member base and real time per visit
Same- or next-day appointments for members, unrushed and on schedule
A membership-based practice that focuses on proactive health management, not reactive "sick care"
- A balanced lifestyle that respects your time and professional boundaries
Benefits
CME allowance of $3,000 plus 40 hours of dedicated CME time (based on FTE status)
Malpractice coverage with tail
Medical, dental, vision and prescription coverage, with HSA/FSA options
Employer-matched 403(b), plus disability and life insurance
Paid time off and holidays
Tuition coverage and ongoing professional development
Parental leave, adoption assistance and family benefits
- Employee Assistance Program and well-being resources
How MDVIP and Ascension Support You
Onboarding and clinical training on the MDVIP wellness program
Marketing and member engagement support to sustain and grow your panel
The resources of a national health system network, with local autonomy
- A physician-led, collaborative, mission-centered culture
What You Bring
