Registered Nurse Care Coach id-5761

This is a remote role. CircleLink Health is looking for passionate, tech savvy registered nurses to work remotely and serve patients enrolled in Medicare’s Chronic Care Management Program. In this part time role (20-25 hrs. per week), an RN Care Coach will be assigned a group of patients that they will be following and calling each month. In these monthly calls you will provide education, coordinate care, close preventive care gaps, and coach on strategies for self-management to keep them out of the hospital.

Key Responsibilities:

Education and Experience:

  • Current, unrestricted Compact License
  • Proficiency with electronic health records and web based applications
  • 3+ years experience as a Registered Nurse

Preferred Education and Experience, but not required:

  • Case Management or Chronic Disease Management experience highly preferred
  • Certified Diabetes Educator
  • Experience with Motivational Interviewing or other behavior change communication techniques

Scheduling and Other Requirements

  • RN needs a STRONG internet-connected computer
  • Minimum of 20-25 hours of availability per week required
  • This role cannot be held alongside a full-time position
  • You will commit to your own schedule using our software
  • Work must be completed on weekdays between 9am-6pm ET. Evening hours are NOT available.
  • This is a 1099 contract position with no end date. Care coaches are responsible for their own taxes and insurance.

Compensation:

Care Coaches can earn up to $45.00 per hour. Compensation is paid at the rate of $15.00 per initial Clinical Encounter per patient per month. A clinical encounter occurs after two criteria are met: a patient has a successful clinical call and the patient has 20 minutes or more of time in their chart timer.

  • Ex: If in one hour you called and spoke with 3 patients and spent 20 minutes with each of them, your pay for that hour would be $45.00 per hour ($15.00/pt reached x 3)
  • Ex: If in one hour you called and spoke with 2 patients and spent 30 minutes with each of them, your pay for that hour would be $30.00 ($15.00/pt reached x 2).

Pay Timing:

Monthly via direct deposit, 40 days after the last day of the month of service. This is due to the time it takes Medicare to process reimbursements, but your monthly pay is guaranteed after the month is over.
