Primary Care, Once called the Paris of the South

Job Description

A Warm Welcome to

Mobile, AL

Funky, feisty and festive. Historic, hip and happening. Colorful, cool and cultured. You can call this coastal town a lot of things when you have a vibrant nearly 325-year history with lots of stories to tell and long-standing traditions celebrated on a regular basis. Once called the Paris of the South, Mobile has long been the cultural center of the Gulf Coast and you'll find an authentic experience like nowhere else in the southern United States.

About the Company

The Gulf Coast Veterans Health Care System serves Veterans across Alabama, Mississippi, and Florida, providing comprehensive, high-quality medical care through a network of state-of-the-art facilities. As part of the Department of Veterans Affairs, we are committed to serving those who served, offering advanced medical technology, collaborative work environments, and a strong mission-driven culture. Physicians who join our team enjoy work-life balance, competitive federal benefits, and the opportunity to make a lasting impact on the health and well-being of our nation’s heroes.

About the Role

The Mobile VA Clinic is seeking a passionate Primary Care Physician to bring high-quality healthcare directly to Veterans in the Gulf Coast region, offering primary care, mental health services, and specialty care in a modern, well-equipped setting. Physicians at this facility enjoy the flexibility of working in a dynamic outpatient environment while benefiting from the strong support network of the larger Gulf Coast VA system. With a focus on patient-centered care, innovation, and community impact, the PCB VA Clinic is an ideal place for providers looking to serve those who have served our country.

Responsibilities

    • The Physician will be responsible for providing primary care for patients with the new VA care delivery system, Patient-Aligned Care Teams (PACT).
    • This model of care incorporates a patient-centered approach focusing on access to care, care managers, collaboration among specialties and other services (including nursing and clerical staff), and alternative means of care (telehealth, nursing visits, shared medical appointments, etc.).
    • The Physician serves as a Primary Care Physician in outpatient primary care clinics, providing appropriate care for Veterans ranging in age from 18 through geriatric years, taking into consideration diagnosis and physical, functional, psychosocial, spiritual and cultural needs.
    • The physician serves as a provider who is highly skilled in the management of a patient's primary care needs and evaluation of the need for subspecialty referral.

VA Benefits

Paid Time Off:

  • 26 Days paid annual (vacation/personal) leave
  • 13 Days paid sick leave each year with no limit on accumulation
  • 11 Federal holidays with pay annually
  • 5 Days paid absence to attend approved CME courses

Insurance:

  • Health Insurance: VA employees have an outstanding number of health insurance plans from which to choose (premiums are partially paid by VA) Lifetime Healthcare Insurance options available
  • Dental & Vision: Our insurance options also include exceptional vision and dental plans (premiums are partially paid by VA)
  • VA employees have the option to use Flexible Spending Accounts, which allow you to use tax-free dollars to pay for medical, dental, and vision care expenses that are not reimbursed by your health insurance plan
  • Term life insurance, family, and additional coverage options are available with the cost shared by the Federal Government
  • Long-term care insurance is available as an option

Federal Retirement Plan:

  • VA employees are covered by the Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS). FERS is a three-tiered retirement plan composed of 1) Social Security benefits, 2) FERS-RAE basic benefits (pension), and 3) Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) which is a 401K-type plan
  • How is the pension funded? VA employees automatically contribute 4.4% of their salary each pay period and the VA contributes 12.2% of the employee’s salary each pay period for a total annual contribution percentage equal to 16.6% of the employee’s salary
  • Similar to the 401(k) savings plans widely available in the private sector, the TSP allows employees to tax defer a portion of their income each year, subject to the requirements of the Internal Revenue Service. For calendar year 2025, employees under the age of 50 may contribute up to $23,500, while those over age 50 are eligible to make catch-up contributions that allow them to defer up to $31,000.
  • The Federal Government also provides an automatic basic contribution (1% of salary) and up to 4% of salary in matching contributions, depending on the amount of the employee contribution
  • For retired military personnel, these benefits are in addition to full monthly retirement pay or pension
  • In addition to FERS, VA provides health care insurance coverage for retired personnel
  • Disability Retirement
  • Employees are vested in a federal pension after only 5 years service
