Care Manager at Centene

This role is designed for experienced clinical professionals—specifically Registered Nurses or independently licensed behavioral health clinicians (LCSW, LCPC, PsyD)—with a background in social work or mental health. You will be managing specialized caseloads of youth within the DCFS system, making it an ideal fit for those passionate about pediatric behavioral health and complex care coordination. The position offers a strong balance of stability and flexibility with a standard Monday–Friday schedule and no weekend requirements. While listed as remote, it is specifically for residents of Cook County and surrounding "Collar" counties in Illinois, as it involves a mix of telephonic work and potentially some community-based outreach. The salary range is broad, allowing for significant upside based on your specific licensure and years of experience. **You might be a good fit if you:** * Hold an active IL RN license or an independent behavioral health license (LCSW, LCPC, etc.). * Have 2–4 years of experience navigating complex care plans and social determinants of health. * Reside in Cook County or a neighboring Illinois county. * Are comfortable managing a high-volume caseload (60–70 members) and documenting clinical findings accurately.
