About this role
About the Opportunity
Lyra’s contract provider network is composed of in-person and virtual therapists, physicians, psychiatrists, and coaches across the US. With our advanced matching technology, supportive provider platform, and opportunities for training and clinical consultation, being part of our contract network is an incredible chance to do what you love (like patient care) with support for the things you don’t love (like self promotion and scheduling).
We are looking for contract psychiatrists who are passionate about whole-person, whole family mental health care and working within a connected network to provide patients with easily accessible, culturally responsive, high-quality mental health care.
As a contract psychiatrist, you’ll provide evidence-based treatment via intake appointments and regular follow-up appointments for children (0-17) and adults. You'll conduct psychiatric evaluations and provide medication management. Lyra makes it easy to refer patients to evidence-based therapy and coaching services in tandem with your care.
You will provide care to individuals from a multitude of different backgrounds and experiences, as well as those with varying needs and abilities. We strive to continue to meet their unique needs by delivering culturally-responsive care—an approach that is mindful of the impact of cultural background on each person’s care experience.
Responsibilities:
Practice comprehensive mental health medication management via an intake appointment and regular follow-up appointments
Conduct mental health risk assessments, psychiatric medication evaluations, and longitudinal medication treatment
Construct patient-centered treatment plans, document treatment recommendations, message patients, and prescribe and manage psychiatric medications
Experience and commitment to providing evidence-based medication treatment that follows clinical best practice guidelines (e.g., measurement based care, patient-centered care)
Experience and enthusiasm for working with minors (ages 0-17) in addition to adults
Requirements:
Here are some of the advantages of joining the Lyra contract provider network:
Set your own schedule without a minimum hours requirement
Focus less on the administrative burden of billing with Lyra’s paperless billing and quick payment turnaround
Access to a custom-built calendar for new patients to connect seamlessly
Access to experienced medication consultations to get rapid support for your patients
Have peace of mind with Lyra’s 24/7 Care Navigation team for patient crisis support
