About the Orthobiologic Program

Atria is launching a precision orthobiologic program, offering regenerative medicine procedures including PRP, Lipogems, A2M/iRAP, and Regenokine delivered within the high-touch Atria care model. The program is led by Ken Zaslav, MD, a board-certified orthobiologic physician, and is designed to give Atria members non-operative, evidence-informed options for musculoskeletal health, injury recovery, and longevity optimization.

This NP role is foundational to the program's launch. The right candidate will work closely alongside Dr. Zaslav as a full procedural and clinical partner performing PRP injections, conducting MSK assessments, managing member follow-up, and helping build the operational and clinical infrastructure of a program being built from the ground up.

Role Summary

The Nurse Practitioner will serve as the primary advanced clinical practitioner for the Atria Orthobiologic Program, operating under a collaborative practice agreement with Dr. Ken Zaslav. This is not a support role; the NP will independently perform orthobiologic procedures, conduct musculoskeletal assessments, manage member care plans, and absorb care coordination responsibilities during phase 2.

This role is ideal for an NP with hands-on procedural experience, a genuine interest in regenerative medicine, and the entrepreneurial drive to help build a new clinical program within a growing, mission-driven practice.

Clinical & Procedural

• Perform PRP, PRP+PPP, and other orthobiologic injections under ultrasound guidance, operating under collaborative practice agreement with Dr. Zaslav
• Conduct initial MSK assessments and intake consultations, evaluating member history, imaging, prior treatments, and procedure candidacy
• Assist Dr. Zaslav with higher-complexity procedures including A2M/iRAP, Lipogems, BMAC, and Regenokine
• Develop and communicate post-procedure care plans including activity restrictions, physical therapy recommendations, and follow-up scheduling
• Perform follow-up visits to assess outcomes, manage complications, and determine candidacy for repeat procedures
• Operate and maintain clinical equipment including centrifuge, Horiba cell counter, and Sonosite ultrasound; conduct daily QC checks in coordination with the Medical Assistant
• Document all clinical encounters in Athena (consultation notes, procedure notes, follow-up summaries) in accordance with Atria standards

Program Development

• Contribute to the development and refinement of clinical SOPs, procedure protocols, and member-facing educational materials
• Participate in outcomes data collection (pain scores, functional outcomes, adverse events) in support of the program's clinical evidence framework
• Actively participate in the evaluation, contributing clinical observations and member feedback to program leadership

$160,000 - 180,000
