About the role
Third Space Therapy combines the independence of private practice with the support of a group setting, focused on expanding Medicaid-covered behavioral healthcare.
We're looking for board-certified Psychiatrists to serve as Collaborating Physicians for our Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioners. This is a flexible engagement centered on collaboration, chart review, and clinical consultation within a fully remote care model serving Medicaid populations.
Why physicians work with us
- Complete flexibility. You set your own hours and availability and shape the work around your own practice — alongside your existing clinical work.
- Your judgment, your practice. You conduct collaboration and chart review according to your own clinical judgment and the requirements of your license.
- Collaborative model. Work alongside PMHNPs and therapists in an integrated behavioral health practice.
- Paid per PMHNP. You're paid a monthly rate for each PMHNP you collaborate with, at a competitive rate.
- Meaningful work. Expand access to high-quality psychiatric care for Medicaid members.
What you'll do
- Provide the physician collaboration required under Ohio law for the PMHNPs you work with
- Conduct chart reviews as set out in the collaborative practice agreement, covering clinical quality, prescribing, and documentation
- Meet with PMHNPs to discuss complex cases, diagnostic questions, and treatment planning
- Provide real-time and asynchronous consultation on challenging or escalating patient presentations
What you'll need
- An active, unrestricted MD or DO license in good standing in Ohio
- Board certification in Psychiatry (ABPN or equivalent)
- Your own malpractice coverage ($1M per occurrence / $3M aggregate)
- Working knowledge of collaborative practice requirements for PMHNPs
- Experience treating diverse psychiatric conditions across the lifespan
- Comfort with telehealth, EHR-based chart review, and remote communication tools
- A quiet, HIPAA-compliant home office, plus your own computer and reliable internet
We're looking for physicians who bring
- Experience collaborating with or supervising PMHNPs
- Strong clinical judgment across a range of psychiatric presentations and populations
- The ability to thoughtfully balance regulatory requirements with meaningful clinical partnership
- A genuine commitment to expanding access to psychiatric care for Medicaid members
