Clinical Component

Both roles are outpatient-only, built around comprehensive primary care with support to add in-office procedures based on physician interest and training. The difference is the patient population: Internal Medicine treats adults 18 and older; Family Medicine treats all ages.

	Internal Medicine	Family Medicine
Patient population	Adults 18+; no pediatric patients	All ages
Volume	18–22 per day (pending confirmation, see Position Overview)	20–25+ per day
Core focus	Preventive care and wellness; complex chronic disease management (HTN, DM, COPD, CHF, CKD); acute adult visits	Preventive care; chronic disease management; acute visits across all ages
Specialty collaboration	Cardiology, endocrinology, GI, oncology, and more	Full CMC specialty referral network

In-Office Procedures

Physicians are encouraged to practice to the full extent of their training, scope, and comfort. Those who want to perform procedures or expand services are fully supported; those who prefer to focus on core primary care without procedures are equally supported.

Internal Medicine procedures (as applicable): skin biopsies, joint injections, minor dermatology, and women's health procedures.

Family Medicine procedures: joint injections, Pap smears, IUD insertions, biopsies, incision and drainage (I&D), suturing, and more. Family Medicine physicians also have the opportunity to incorporate women's health, orthopedics, and dermatology into their practice.

IM candidates should have performed in-office procedures within the last five years.

Clinical Support and Technology

Dedicated nurse and full support team per physician
In-house labs and diagnostics
Strong specialty referral network across CMC
Cerner EMR with Dragon dictation and Ambient AI charting to reduce documentation time
Shared call at 1:7–1:8 with after-hours calls triaged by a nurse line (fewer than 10 calls per week on average)

No hospital rounding and no inpatient responsibilities for either role.

Notes and flags for review

IM procedures scope: The IM one-pager lists procedures "as applicable" and includes women's health. Confirm how broad the IM procedural scope should read for a candidate-facing report, since IM is adults-only.
IM volume still carries the 18–22 vs 20–25+ discrepancy from Position Overview.
