Position Overview
Antidote Health is seeking a psychiatrist who resides in Georgia to serve as a collaborating/delegating physician for Antidote psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners (PMHNPs). This part-time/PRN collaboration role includes psychiatric consultation, Georgia Nurse Protocol Agreement oversight, chart review, prescribing oversight, complex case review, quality oversight, and clinical support. This position is focused on physician collaboration and oversight and does not include a routine direct patient care panel.
The physician will provide psychiatric expertise to support Antidote's telehealth, quality, utilization management, and accreditation programs, including consultation on complex behavioral health cases, medication management, safety escalation, clinical standards, and care coordination. This role requires Georgia residency, an active and unrestricted Georgia medical license, and the ability to meet all Georgia requirements for a delegating physician under a Nurse Protocol Agreement.
Key Responsibilities
- Establish, execute, and maintain Georgia Nurse Protocol Agreements with eligible Antidote PMHNPs in accordance with applicable Georgia requirements and Antidote policy.
- Fulfill all responsibilities of a delegating physician under each Nurse Protocol Agreement, including required availability, consultation, oversight, and periodic review.
- Remain available by phone or secure electronic communication to provide timely psychiatric consultation regarding diagnostic questions, medication management, safety concerns, case escalations, and care that may exceed a PMHNP's authorized scope or the capabilities of the telehealth model.
- Review PMHNP patient charts and clinical documentation at the frequency required by Georgia law, each Nurse Protocol Agreement, and organizational policy, including focused review of higher-risk, controlled-substance, safety, complaint, and escalated cases when applicable.
- Provide oversight of psychotropic and controlled-substance prescribing when authorized under the Nurse Protocol Agreement, including adherence to applicable Georgia and federal requirements and prescription drug monitoring program obligations.
- Review and provide physician input on psychiatric protocols, clinical standards, prescribing parameters, escalation pathways, and amendments that affect collaborative practice.
- Document consultations, chart reviews, findings, recommendations, and follow-up actions accurately and within required timeframes.
- Provide timely practitioner feedback and education when documentation, prescribing, clinical decision-making, or adherence to established protocols requires improvement.
- Attend and participate in Antidote's Quality Committee and contribute psychiatric expertise to quality improvement activities, including review of behavioral health clinical trends, quality measures, complaints, adverse events, corrective actions, and opportunities for improvement.
- Participate in complex behavioral health case review and provide psychiatrist-level consultation for high-risk, diagnostically complex, treatment-resistant, safety-related, or escalated cases as needed.
- Support Antidote's Utilization Management (UM) Program as needed by providing psychiatric subject-matter expertise for behavioral health clinical criteria, policies, complex case review, program evaluation, appeals, and other physician input consistent with applicable role requirements.
- Support NCQA accreditation and ongoing compliance activities involving behavioral health, including participation in relevant committee oversight, clinical program review, quality improvement, and documentation of physician involvement as applicable.
- Support credentialing, compliance, audit, and regulatory activities related to the collaborating-provider arrangement, and promptly disclose any change in licensure, credentials, DEA registration, availability, or other status that could affect the ability to serve as a delegating physician.
QualificationsRequired:
- Medical Doctor (MD) or Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO).
- Active, unrestricted medical license in Georgia.

- Knowledge of psychiatric coding and documentation, behavioral health HEDIS measures, measurement-based care, and risk adjustment principles.
- Willingness and ability to enter into and maintain Georgia Nurse Protocol Agreements with Antidote PMHNPs.
- Experience diagnosing and treating common psychiatric conditions across the adult lifespan, including mood, anxiety, trauma-related, attention, sleep, and substance-related disorders.
- Proficiency with electronic health records and telehealth platforms.
- Reliable internet connection and private workspace suitable for confidential telehealth care.
Preferred:
- Experience serving as a collaborating, supervising, or delegating psychiatrist for PMHNPs.
- Experience with or strong familiarity with NCQA behavioral health standards, accreditation requirements, behavioral health quality measures, and quality improvement programs.
- Active, unrestricted medical licenses in additional Antidote service states, particularly Ohio, Arizona, and Texas.
- Current DEA registration and eligibility to prescribe controlled substances in Georgia, if applicable to the role and Nurse Protocol Agreement.
Competencies
- Sound psychiatric clinical judgment and commitment to evidence-based, trauma-informed, and patient-centered care.
- Ability to provide timely consultation, safety-escalation support, and collaborative psychiatric guidance to PMHNPs.
- Strong communication, documentation, and organizational skills.
- Ability to operate independently in a remote care environment while following company policies and regulatory requirements.
- Collaborative approach to quality improvement, compliance, and cross-functional partnership.
Compensation and Benefits
- Monthly collaboration stipend: $550 per actively assigned PMHNP.
- Stipend covers the collaboration, consultation, chart review, Quality Committee, complex case review, UM support, and related oversight responsibilities described in this role.
Company Standards and Expectations

Tips for Your Remote Psychiatric Physician Assistant Job Search
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote psychiatric physician assistant openings from across the U.S. in one place, so you can find roles that match your specialty and apply directly without sorting through unrelated postings.
Secure multistate prescriptive authority before applying
Remote psychiatric PA roles frequently require licenses in several states. Enrolling in the PA Licensure Compact before you start applying removes a common hiring barrier and makes you an immediately deployable candidate for distributed care teams.
Show telepsychiatry platform fluency on your resume
Name the specific EHR systems and video platforms you've used, such as Epic Telehealth, Doxy.me, or Valant. Remote behavioral health employers screen for this directly because onboarding time matters when care teams are fully distributed.
Prepare for async clinical communication in interviews
Remote psychiatric PA teams rely on written handoffs, asynchronous chart updates, and structured messaging protocols. During interviews, describe how you document clinical decisions for a supervising psychiatrist who may review your notes hours later, not in real time.
Remote Psychiatric Physician Assistant Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote psychiatric physician assistant job?
Remote psychiatric physician assistant roles go to candidates who can demonstrate autonomous clinical judgment, strong written documentation habits, and comfort with asynchronous communication tools used by distributed care teams. Telehealth platforms and behavioral health groups hiring remotely screen heavily for experience with EHR systems, video-based patient assessments, and self-directed caseload management. Holding an active multistate compact license significantly expands your pool of remote opportunities.
Which companies hire remote psychiatric physician assistants?
Remote psychiatric physician assistant roles are posted by Ascend Telemedicine, Equip, and Ophelia and others right now, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These include remote-first telehealth companies, distributed behavioral health groups, and digital mental health platforms that deliver psychiatric services without requiring a physical clinical site.
Can you get a remote psychiatric physician assistant job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry-level psychiatric PA roles are harder to land because employers expect you to manage patients and documentation independently from day one. Telehealth startups and behavioral health platforms occasionally hire new graduates when candidates show strong clinical rotations in psychiatry, familiarity with telepsychiatry workflows, and demonstrated comfort with EHR platforms. A supervised fellowship or collaborative agreement with a remote supervising psychiatrist can open doors that direct applications alone won't.
Do you need a degree for remote psychiatric physician assistant jobs?
Yes, a master's-level PA degree from an accredited program and NCCPA certification are required for all physician assistant roles, including remote ones. Remote employers do weigh your clinical experience in psychiatry, your licensing across multiple states, and your fluency with telehealth platforms alongside your credentials when deciding between candidates.
