Who Should Apply
This role fits a board-certified Internal Medicine physician who has spent at least five years as a hospitalist and remains active in inpatient care within the last two years. You should be at ease reading raw medical record data, including FHIR feeds and clinical notes, and you should enjoy applying guidelines with precision. Candidates who have done chart review, clinical documentation improvement, utilization review, or medical coding/QA tend to pick up the workflow faster. The role is less suitable for physicians without recent inpatient hospitalist experience or those who prefer direct patient care over detailed record review. A common reason candidates get rejected is falling short of the five-year hospitalist threshold or lacking board certification in Internal Medicine. Another is submitting work that misses project specifications, since compensation depends on tasks that meet those standards.
Salary Insight
Compensation is $80 to $125 per hour, but pay is output-based. You are paid per task that meets the project specifications, and the time required to complete work may vary depending on your experience and workflow. Minimum submission requirements apply, and experts must submit a minimum number of tasks per week.
