A typical day may have 1-4 veterans scheduled with approximately each visit containing 2-18 hours of follow-up research and charting. Although your schedule may have inly 3-5 appointments, one appointment can easily take 13-18 hours  to complete. It is impossible to complete all tasks during working hours, and count on working every evening until10:30-11pm plus all through the weekend every weekend to catch up. . Work load is greatly underestimated as you can have multiple complicated visits a day which is impossible to complete in a 24 hours. If your last veteran is at 11:00, you must stay in the office and cannot complete your work in your home office. The records are frequently unavailable due to technical issues which is a big hindrance   to completing your records. Even when the records are down, you are required to keep seeing veterans although the files that are being addressed during the visit are unavailable for review. 

 Poor communication with management. Pay is inconsistent, as it is very common with  employees to have their checks short 1-2 days a month. This can take months to resolve as there is no direct path to view hours  payed or for the employees to contact payroll. Get ready for sending email after email with no response to the issue. 
Employees are constantly discouraged causing a high turn over. 

As a contractor you never know what you are going to step into. I found  my work as a disability examiner for veterans to be very rewarding. I put my heart, skills, and a lot of energy into my role. I appreciated that my recruiter at Frontera recognized that I cared about the veterans that I worked with, and he knew that I did work. He listened to any problems that I was having with the company that I was contracted with, and he was a good liaison that supported me.  I did not always agree with the policies of the company that I worked for,  and Frontera and my recruiter acted as my advocate. An agency with recruiters that develops good relationships with their employees is essential. I feel like Frontera has solid ethics toward their contractors, and I would definitely work for them again. 

The nature of this kind of position is unusual.  It is government contract work for the VBA, and Frontera is the employer for the clinicians that do the clinical work of the contract.  In these kinds of situations, you have the parent company, the clinician, and Frontera in the middle as the employer.  I worked for a competitor of Frontera for several years, and they were quite indifferent to the needs of the clinicians and had no pulse on the nature of the work itself.  They were essentially a payroll service, and any employment needs beyond that were met with either silence or confusion.  Frontera is a different story.  They listen and do their best to find solutions that work for everyone involved.   They respond quickly to the needs of the situation.  Highly recommend Frontera.  

A typical day is examing 4 to 5 veterans with various claims. Average disability claims range from 15 to 20. I have gained a wealth of knowledge related to chronic diseases , caring for Veterans , performing high quality exams and writing medical opinions. There is no micromanaging here. I am allowed to be independent. Management is there when needed. The culture is that of independence but support for one another when needed.  One has room for work life balance as scheduling has some room for flexibility. The most enjoyable part of the job is knowing that you have made a difference in the life of a veteran.

At Frontera Search Partners, the past year has been nothing short of amazing. The work culture here is more than just a team; it's a family. Ches and Jody, the co-founders, have created an environment where personal and professional growth are not just encouraged but prioritized. Their leadership is not only visionary but also deeply invested in the well-being of each team member. I genuinely look forward to coming to work every day, surrounded by supportive colleagues and guided by inspirational leaders. Being part of Frontera is not just a job; it's a fulfilling journey. I couldn't recommend it more.

I have been working as a contract Audiologist with Frontera for the past year and a half, and it has been an incredibly rewarding experience. One of the most fulfilling parts of my role is having the opportunity to assist veterans every day, which gives true purpose to the work I do. The work environment is supportive, and I value the high level of autonomy I have in the clinic. Management is always available when needed yet trusts us to do our jobs without micromanaging. The work-life balance is excellent, allowing me to bring my best self to both my patients and my personal life. Overall, Frontera has been a wonderful place to work, and I’m proud to be part of their team.

Frontera has been a great place to work. Everyone is on top of their responsibilities, and the team works together seamlessly, which makes even the busiest days feel manageable. There are so many good things to say about the two co-founders; they lead with vision, transparency, and integrity. The company has been growing rapidly, and while that can come with challenges, we've navigated the growing pains effortlessly thanks to strong leadership and a solid team culture.

I thoroughly enjoyed the actual job itself--providing medical administration for our veterans to receive the benefits they more than deserve--but beyond that, every aspect is confusing. You have three different "bosses," from three different companies, and none of them provide adequate support. Each "boss" told me I was to follow their direction alone, while telling me a different answer to any question. Even my schedule was confusing. I had to inquire about benefits and even pay schedule more than once. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Freedom to choose what days I will need off on a monthly basis. Easy to take days off.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
I have not really experienced any stress as compared to my past positions.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
I work in a very quiet office with only 5 others.
Culture is Very inclusive.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
I run the front desk as well as perform testing.
I do phlebotomy, EKG,ABI’s, & PFT testing.

I worked as a NP doing VA disability exams through Frontera. Very flexible job. You don’t take work him. If I ever needed anything, my point of contact with frontera was always very responsive and helpful. Had to leave for personal reasons or would still be working with the company. If you are looking for a low stress NP job where you don’t take work home, and don’t see 20+ patients a day, this is the perfect job.
