Eligibility, licensing, and location restrictions can change. Always confirm details on the source posting before applying.

Why this is worth applying to

Worth considering for licensed clinicians in or near Blount County who want payer-side care coordination and can tolerate field travel, documentation, and regulatory workflows; less suitable for those seeking fully remote work or direct clinical practice.

Who should apply

Nurses and allied health professionals with case management, Medicare/Medicaid, care transitions, or community resource experience; IMGs with strong clinical assessment and care-coordination skills may also be competitive if they meet licensure and local travel requirements.

CV angle

Frame real clinical experience around care coordination, chronic disease management, care transitions, patient education, interdisciplinary collaboration, documentation, community resources, and benefits/utilization awareness; quantify caseloads, complex-member management, and quality or cost-avoidance outcomes without inventing non-clinical experience.

Skills to highlight

  • Care coordination
  • Case management
  • Medicare/Medicaid knowledge
  • Utilization review awareness
  • Patient education
  • Care planning
  • Clinical documentation
  • Interdisciplinary collaboration
  • Community resource referral

Role summary

A field-based payer care coordinator role supporting medically complex Medicare/Medicaid members through telephonic and face-to-face assessments, individualized care plans, benefits navigation, community referrals, documentation, and collaboration with case management and utilization review teams.
