Job Description

Hospitalist – BSA Health System | Amarillo, Texas

Physician-led, hospital-employed hospitalist opportunity in a Top 100 Hospital with full intensivist and specialty support.

Join a collaborative and well-established hospitalist program at Baptist St. Anthony’s Hospital, a 450-bed regional referral center in the heart of the Texas Panhandle. The BSA Hospitalist Group includes 36 board-certified/board-eligible physicians and 8 advanced practice providers managing a daily census of approximately 230–240 patients. This opportunity offers autonomy with strong system support, 24/7 intensivist backup, and a collegial culture known for stability and teamwork.

About the Role

  • Schedule: 7 AM – 7 PM (12-hour shift) | 7-on / 7-off
  • Primary Duties: Our service provides inpatient care for patients referred by community physicians and the emergency room.
  • ICU: Semi-open model with 24/7 medical and surgical intensivist coverage; hospitalists may manage selected ICU patients in coordination
  • Procedures: Optional – central line and airway skills encouraged but not required; vascular access team handles most lines; RT, ICU, and Anesthesia available for airway support
  • EMR: Epic

    Our Hospitalist program provides a  balanced workload which allows time for thoughtful chart review, communication with families, and patient-centered decision-making. Physicians here feel supported, not rushed—and that makes a measurable difference in care quality.

    Our program is known for its organization and efficiency—from well-defined coverage roles to NP-assistance with direct patient care, phone triage and seamless patient distribution. It’s a system designed to let physicians focus on medicine, not logistics.
