Physicians must maintain current, unrestricted medical licenses in any U.S. state; current Board certification or Board eligibility in Family Medicine or Internal Medicine; a minimum of 24 months specialty experience including residency; and current Basic Life Support and Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support certifications. Credentialing and clinical privileging occur through the Gallup Service Unit's Credentialing Committee. Immunization documentation is required (COVID series, rubella/mumps/measles immunity, hepatitis B series, varicella history or titer, Tdap, TB Mantoux test within 12 months, current influenza vaccination). Physicians must demonstrate cultural awareness and respect for Native American practices. Tohatchi Health Center handles all billing and collection of professional and facility fees.
