What is a Behavioral Care Manager?

A Behavioral Care Manager is a healthcare professional who helps patients manage mental health and behavioral conditions, such as depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders. They work with patients, families, and a team of providers to develop and coordinate care plans, monitor progress, and connect individuals to appropriate resources and support. Behavioral Care Managers often provide education, counseling, and follow-up to ensure patients receive comprehensive care tailored to their needs. They may work in clinics, hospitals, or community health settings and collaborate closely with primary care and mental health specialists.

How does a Behavioral Care Manager typically collaborate with other healthcare professionals to support patient outcomes?

Behavioral Care Managers work closely with a multidisciplinary team, including primary care physicians, psychiatrists, social workers, and nurses, to coordinate comprehensive care for patients. They often act as a liaison, facilitating communication between providers to ensure that behavioral health needs are integrated into overall treatment plans. Regular case conferences, care plan updates, and shared documentation are common practices that help ensure all team members are informed about patient progress. This collaborative approach not only improves patient outcomes but also provides Behavioral Care Managers with valuable opportunities to learn from colleagues in different specialties.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Behavioral Care Manager, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Behavioral Care Manager, you need a background in behavioral health, case management, and a relevant degree such as social work, psychology, or nursing, often with licensure (e.g., LCSW, LPC, RN). Familiarity with electronic health records, care coordination platforms, and mental health assessment tools is typically required. Outstanding interpersonal communication, problem-solving, and cultural sensitivity are vital soft skills for engaging clients and collaborating with multidisciplinary teams. These competencies ensure effective support for clients’ mental health needs, improved care outcomes, and seamless coordination across services.

Job description

Lifekind Health is looking for a full-time Behavioral Health Care Manager to serve as a critical link between behavioral health, medical services, and care coordination teams. This role supports compliance with Enhanced Care Management (ECM) program requirements while improving patient engagement, continuity of care, and clinical outcomes for moderate to high-risk populations. Help to increase show rates, ensure compliance, and optimize clinical staff efficiency by shifting non-billable tasks away from licensed providers.


Our mission is to bring care that’s whole, human, and healing. Blending medical, behavioral, and lifestyle support into a single plan because restoring life takes more than a prescription.

At Lifekind Health we strive every day to live up to that definition by providing the best care possible for our complex patient population. Our team of medical doctors, psychologists, chiropractors, acupuncturists, and dietitians work together within a revolutionary transdisciplinary model that addresses the quadruple aim of healthcare: enhancing patient experience, improving patient health, reducing healthcare costs, and increasing employee satisfaction. Learn more about us at www.Lifekindhealth.com.

  • Provide Enhanced Care Management (ECM)-aligned care coordination for high-acuity patients and patients with comorbid behavioral and medical conditions
  • Conduct proactive patient outreach, engagement, and follow-up
  • Identify and address barriers to care (e.g., transportation, psychosocial factors)
  • Monitor behavioral health status and escalate clinical concerns appropriately
  • Facilitate communication across interdisciplinary care teams
  • Ensure accurate, timely, and compliant documentation per payer requirements
  • Support continuity of care across behavioral health, medical, and ancillary services

Our Ideal Candidate will have the following qualifications:

  • Master’s degree in Social Work (MSW), Marriage and Family Therapy (AMFT), or related field (unlicensed)
  • Basic Life Support (BLS) or CPR certification required
  • Experience in behavioral health, care coordination, or case management strongly preferred
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills
  • Ability to work within a multidisciplinary care model
  • Knowledge of Medi-Cal and ECM program requirements preferred
  • Ability and willingness to travel to the 2 clinics in your assigned region


At Lifekind, we believe our employees deserve the best. Here’s what you can look forward to when you join us:

  • Comprehensive Benefits: medical, dental, vision insurance options for you and your family
  • Medical – Choice between three Cigna PPO plans (company pays 90% for employees and 50% for dependents!)
  • Dental offered through Principal Life Insurance Company
  • Vision offered through Principal and VSP Vision Care
  • Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts (DCSA)
  • Company paid life insurance, short-term and long-term disability with medical enrollment
  • Employee Life, Spouse Life and Dependent Life
  • 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan
