Description
Optum delivers personal health management solutions designed to help individuals stay healthy, get healthy and live with illness. Evidence-based medicine, technology and specially trained nurses are combined to identify an individual's health needs, make referrals to appropriate resources and close gaps in care. With capabilities ranging from wellness promotion to self-care and triage to longitudinal case management, Optum delivers an integrated, cohesive approach to managing the health of each individual--as an individual.
We offer an opportunity to truly make a difference while advancing your career. It's a rare combination that makes Optum the ideal place for your professional and personal satisfaction.
Here's a unique way to utilize your nursing background in a position that offers educational programs for CE credits, flexible scheduling and plenty of opportunity for growth. Our new Care Manager will communicate with enrollees on a regular basis to make sure they understand their benefits and treatments, so that their care plans run smoothly and effectively. This is a great chance to enjoy regular hours as you directly impact the well being of our customers.

Educating enrollees about their plans of care, benefits and medications
Providing information and case management to patients in an effort to prevent hospital readmission
Informing the Medical Director about any gaps or issues in the care plan
Presenting cases to the Medical Director at a weekly team meeting
Attending staff meetings as needed
