Collaborating Psychiatrist

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.

• 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
