Our Case Managers are a compassionate team of clinicians who support members through a whole-person care model. We partner with individuals to understand their unique medical health needs, remove barriers, and empower meaningful progress toward emotional well-being and healthier daily living.

Who we serve:

Premera Blue Cross, a nationally recognized leader in the practice of integrated case management, is looking to expand our growing team of Case Managers. Our comprehensive, whole-person health assessment helps to identify member actionable barriers and develop obtainable goals that will eventually lead to self-care. In the interim, case managers employ an integrated case management approach that recognizes making lifestyle changes is not simple and meets members where they are. We also monitor progress toward goals and facilitate the coordination of providers as needed. Our market-differentiated approach has helped thousands of members make meaningful improvements to their daily habits, health, and overall well-being.

What you will get in this role:

• The opportunity to help members in a meaningful and impactful way. We know that helping people is important to you.

• Facilitate communication and coordination among the health care team to maximize delivery of appropriate care.

• Provide interventions focused on removing barriers, promoting positive behavior change using motivational interviewing techniques, and stabilizing the members’ natural support systems by ensuring that caregiver needs are identified and being met.
