This position is a 0.5FTE and is compensated through a salaried compensation model of approximately $10, per month. The position offers a competitive overhead rate. Scheduling is flexible, but physicians are expected to have regular weekly office hours to support team-based care and support care continuity Physicians in this role are expected to provide 70% clinical care, and 30% research activities. Research activities are integral to this role.
This position reports to the Head, Department of Family Practice, Central Zone for their professional and clinical activities, and to the Director, Primary Health Care and Chronic Disease Management, Central Zone and the Manager, Integrated Chronic Care Service for administrative activities delivered for the Program.
