Here is some insight into the day-to-day duties of our FPOB providers.
Main Body- FPOB’s expect to see 14-16 patients a day in clinic. Hours are from 8am-5:30pm and time can be spent in the hospital and in the clinic. The providers have autonomy to do what is best for their practice and are flexible based on the needs of their patients. With a 1:8 call schedule, they will be on call every 8th day and one weekend call every 8th weekend from Friday night to Monday morning. Depending on the day, providers can see up to 10 patients in the hospital or as little as 2 patients while the PA covers the Outpatient practice. During the day, there is a nurse triage service while in the evening it is rerouted to the on-call provider. FPOB’s use Nextgen for EMR.
