Behavioral Health Care Advocate, Field-Based
2 months ago
The Behavioral Health Care Advocate will wear many hats and work in a variety of environments. Sometimes, you'll interact with members leaving the hospital, possibly with new medications or diagnoses. Or perhaps you'll perform home visits, assisting members with safe, effective transitions from care environments to where they live. You may also act as an intermediary between providers and members, serving in numerous roles, such as educator, evaluator, service coordinator, community resource researcher and more. The result? Fewer hospitalizations, ER visits and costly service gaps, and a less stressed, more effective health care system for us all.
This is a field-based position in Southwest Virginia. The Care Advocate will be based out of a home office and spend approximately 25% of the week in the community meeting with members in their homes, community centers, hospitals, or providers' offices. Based on business needs, preferred locations include Bristol, Wise, Marion, Abingdon, Wytheville, and surrounding areas. Candidates residing in areas near Roanoke, Salem, and Bedford may be considered if business needs allow.
The schedule is Monday - Friday during standard business hours. This position may include some weekend hours with the ability to flex hours during the work week.
Primary Responsibilities:
- Visit Medicaid members in their homes and/or other settings, including community centers, hospitals, or providers' offices
- Provide a complete continuum of quality care through close communication with members via in-person or on-phone interaction
- Support members with condition education, medication reviews, and connections to resources such as Home Health Aides or Meals on Wheels
- Assist members with the transition from a care facility back to their home
Why consider working for UnitedHealth Group? For starters, competitive base pay, a comprehensive benefit program, performance rewards, and a management team who demonstrates their commitment to your success. Some of our offerings include:
- Paid Time Off which you start to accrue with your first pay period plus 8 Paid Holidays and 1 Floating Holiday
- Medical Plan options along with participation in a Health Spending Account or a Health Saving account
- Dental, Vision, Life & AD&D Insurance along with Short-term Disability and Long-Term Disability coverage
- 401(k) Savings Plan and Employee Stock Purchase Plan
- Education Reimbursement
- Employee Discounts
- Employee Assistance Program
- Employee Referral Bonus Program
- Voluntary Benefits (pet insurance, legal insurance, LTC Insurance, etc.)
- More information can be found at: What We Offer What We Offer () and United Well-being ()
You'll be rewarded and recognized for your performance in an environment that will challenge you and give you clear direction on what it takes to succeed in your role as well as provide development for other roles you may be interested in.
Required Qualifications:
- Licensed Master's degree in Psychology, Social Work, Counseling, or Marriage and Family Counseling; or Licensed Ph.D.
- Active, unrestricted, independent license in Virginia: LCSW, LMFT, LPC, or LP
- 1+ years of experience working in behavioral health
- Proficient computer skills and good working knowledge of Microsoft Word and Outlook
- Access to reliable transportation that will allow you to travel within an assigned territory in Southwest Virginia

Preferred Qualifications:
- 1+ years of experience working with Medicaid population
- 1+ years of Community Mental Health experience
- 1+ years of experience working with local and state community resources in Virginia

Today, however, there are still far too many barriers to good health which are disproportionately experienced by people of color, historically marginalized groups and those with lower incomes. We are committed to mitigating our impact on the environment and enabling and delivering equitable care that addresses health disparities and improves health outcomes - an enterprise priority reflected in our mission.
