Green Card Physician Jobs
Physician roles qualify for EB-2 and EB-3 green card sponsorship through PERM labor certification, where your employer files on your behalf after completing the DOL's recruitment process. Hospitals, health systems, and group practices routinely sponsor foreign-trained physicians, particularly in primary care and underserved area shortages. Permanent residency means no visa renewals, no lottery exposure, and no employer-tied nonimmigrant status.

At CVS Health®, you’ll be surrounded by passionate colleagues who care deeply, innovate with purpose, hold ourselves accountable and prioritize safety and quality in everything we do. Join us and be part of something bigger – helping to simplify health care one person, one family and one community at a time.
Do you have a passion for engaging with people and helping them on their journey to better health? Signify Health, part of CVS Health®, is seeking a Part Time Physician to provide In-Home Health Evaluations, engaging with people in the comfort of their own homes and helping bridge gaps in care.
You’ll play a critical role in building trusted relationships to make people healthier, helping bring flexible, comprehensive and personalized health evaluations right to people’s front doors.
Job highlights
The visit, which lasts about 45 minutes, allows for time to connect one-on-one and answer health questions. It includes a medication and medical history review, a physical evaluation, and, if ordered by the person’s health plan, additional diagnostic tests (i.e., diabetic eye exams, spirometry, etc.). You’ll use an iPad and an intuitive clinical workflow for each evaluation and are not required to prescribe medicine, order lab tests or alter people’s current treatment regimen.
In this role, you will:
- Bring your heart into every visit, joining a national network of purpose-driven clinicians dedicated to improving health outcomes
- Be part of our efforts to visit millions of people nationwide with the goal of providing connections to the right care for people’s unique needs

- Conduct virtual visits as needed
- Provide all Signify Health services as indicated including Diagnostic & Preventive Services products (i.e., spirometry, DEE, bone density screening, etc.)

These environments are diverse and may present a variety of conditions. Candidates must be able to comfortably and safely perform their duties in homes that may contain household pets, secondhand smoke and other potential airborne allergens or irritants.
Why Clinicians Enjoy Working with Signify Health
“Many of the people I see are shocked that a physician is coming to their home to visit with them one-on-one. When you sit down and have an unhurried conversation about their health, they are impressed, happy, and understand that their health plan and care team cares about them.” - M.L., MD
“The primary care physician gets a snapshot of a person in an office setting, but with Signify Health, we see things like the number of steps to enter their home, the state of disrepair those steps may be in, and the person’s ability to function comfortably and with ease in their own home. We can make referrals to the individual’s health plan, encourage the participation of their loved ones, and ensure their PCPs are aware of their health and overall quality of life.” - C.H., MD

Verify your medical credentials meet USCIS standards
Foreign medical degrees must be evaluated for U.S. equivalency before your employer files the I-140. Obtain an Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates credential report and confirm your residency completion documents are in order before starting the PERM process.
Target hospitals in Health Professional Shortage Areas
Facilities in federally designated shortage areas have stronger documented recruitment need, which strengthens the PERM application and can accelerate DOL review. Geographic targeting based on shortage designations is a practical filter that most applicants overlook when building their search list.
Search green-card-sponsoring physician employers on Migrate Mate
Use Migrate Mate to filter physician roles by employers with active EB-2 and EB-3 sponsorship history. Seeing which health systems have completed PERM filings for physicians cuts your employer research time significantly.
Clarify EB-2 versus EB-3 track with your prospective employer
Physician roles typically qualify under both categories, but the employer controls which track they file. EB-2 requires the position to specify an advanced degree; EB-3 covers professional roles. Your priority date wait time depends on which category is filed and your country of birth.
Request the PERM timeline upfront before accepting an offer
PERM labor certification currently takes many months at DOL before the I-140 can be filed. Ask the employer at the offer stage whether they use a dedicated immigration counsel and whether PERM recruitment has already started, since some hospital systems initiate it before extending an offer.
Use the OFLC Wage Search to validate your offered salary
Your employer's PERM filing must certify the offered wage meets or exceeds the prevailing wage for your specialty and location. Pull the OFLC Wage Search yourself before negotiations close to confirm the offer clears DOL's wage floor for your specific SOC code and experience level.
Green Card Physician: Frequently Asked Questions
Do physician roles qualify for EB-2 or EB-3 green card sponsorship?
Most physician positions qualify under both EB-2 and EB-3, depending on how the employer structures the job requirements. EB-2 applies when the role specifies a master's-level or doctoral-level degree, which a medical degree satisfies. EB-3 covers professional roles requiring a bachelor's degree or its equivalent. Your employer and their immigration counsel typically decide which category fits the position before filing PERM.
How does green card sponsorship differ from H-1B for physicians?
H-1B visa is a temporary nonimmigrant status requiring renewal and tied to a specific employer, with an annual lottery for most cap-subject petitions. Green card sponsorship through PERM and I-140 is a permanent pathway with no lottery at the EB-3 level and no recurring renewals once you receive your card. The tradeoff is timeline: PERM labor certification and adjustment of status take considerably longer than an initial H-1B approval, often multiple years depending on your country of birth.
What is the PERM labor certification process for a physician employer?
PERM requires your employer to conduct a DOL-supervised recruitment campaign proving no qualified U.S. workers are available for the position. This includes specific advertising steps, documentation of all applicants considered, and a prevailing wage determination from DOL. Once DOL certifies the PERM application, the employer files the I-140 immigrant petition on your behalf. The entire sequence must be completed before you can file for adjustment of status.
Can I find physician employers who already sponsor green cards?
Yes. Migrate Mate lets you search physician roles specifically filtered by employers with EB-2 and EB-3 sponsorship history, so you can focus your applications on health systems and hospitals that have already completed PERM filings for physicians rather than approaching employers unfamiliar with the process.
Does having J-1 waiver obligations affect my green card sponsorship eligibility?
If you completed a J-1 visa residency or fellowship, you may be subject to a two-year home-country physical presence requirement before changing to most nonimmigrant statuses or adjusting to permanent residence. A J-1 waiver, often obtained through a Conrad 30 state health department program or a federal agency, removes that requirement. Your employer's immigration counsel should confirm your waiver status is resolved before initiating the PERM process.
