[Hiring] Clinical Review Psychologist @Whole Connection

Role Description

Whole Connection is seeking a licensed Clinical Psychologist to join our team in a focused quality assurance capacity. This is not a direct clinical supervision role — it is a documentation review and sign-off position designed for an experienced psychologist who values clinical excellence and wants a well-defined, flexible commitment alongside other professional work.

This role offers:

• $75–$90/hour W2, commensurate with experience
• 6% employer 401(k) match
• PTO and sick time accrual
• Part-time holiday pay
• Estimated 2–8 hours per week — highly flexible
• Fully remote with periodic in-person meetings preferred
• No direct client contact, no caseload, no supervisory liability

The Clinical Review Psychologist will serve as a subject matter expert responsible for the final review and sign-off of clinical psychotherapy documentation. Your work ensures clinical integrity, payer compliance, and supports our therapists' professional growth through high-quality feedback.

Core Responsibilities

• Review clinical documentation — intake assessments, progress notes, treatment plans, and discharge summaries — for clinical soundness, clarity, and completeness
• Ensure all documentation aligns with state and federal regulations, APA ethics codes, and requirements for commercial insurance and Health First Colorado (Medicaid)
• Provide timely, constructive written feedback to clinicians, ensuring the golden thread is present throughout each client's record
• Provide final required signature on documentation confirming readiness for auditing and billing
• Collaborate with clinical leadership to identify documentation trends and assist in developing training resources

Qualifications

• PhD or PsyD from an APA-accredited program
• Current, unrestricted Colorado psychologist license
• Minimum 2 years experience in a clinical supervisory, chart review, or quality assurance role
• Deep understanding of DSM-5/ICD-10 diagnostic criteria and evidence-based modalities
• Proven expertise in medical necessity documentation and audit-proof clinical records
• Strong organizational skills and ability to deliver feedback supportively and professionally

Preferred Qualifications

• Active in-network credentialing with one or more Colorado payers — Medicare Part B, Health First Colorado/Medicaid, UnitedHealthcare/Optum, Cigna, Aetna, or Anthem BCBS — is a significant advantage and will be weighted heavily in our review
• Prior experience navigating commercial or government payer audits
• Familiarity with modern EHR systems
