No on-call, no weekends, and no holidays required.

Optum Home & Community Care, part of the Optum family of businesses, is creating something new in health care. We are uniting industry-leading solutions to build an integrated care model that holistically addresses an individual's physical, mental and social needs - helping patients access and navigate care anytime and anywhere. As a team member of our Senior Community Care (SCC) team, we work to provide care to patients in nursing homes, senior housing and assisted living settings. This life-changing work adds a layer of support to improve access to care. We're connecting care to create a seamless health journey for patients across settings. Join us to start Caring. Connecting. Growing together

 

This role supports Optum Senior Community Care's SNF Patient Connect Program, a unique, one-time visit initiative designed for UnitedHealthcare members transitioning from hospitalization to a skilled nursing facility (SNF) and ultimately back home. The program focuses on improving care transitions, reducing 30-day hospital readmissions, and enhancing overall patient outcomes during a critical stage in the healthcare journey.

In this autonomous role, the Advanced Practice Clinician (APC) conducts a comprehensive, one-time health assessment in collaboration with the case management team to support effective care coordination. The visit emphasizes accurate and complete documentation of acute and chronic conditions, improved coding accuracy, and increased closure of STAR/HEDIS quality measures, including support for Advanced Care Planning directives.

The APC plays a key role in educating patients and supporting both patients and families during a vulnerable transition period, while also communicating pertinent findings to attending providers and facility staff. Unlike traditional clinical roles, the APC does not manage ongoing care or carry responsibility for orders, treatments, or follow-up, allowing greater focus on assessment, insight, and impact.

This position offers the opportunity to work independently across varied care settings, leveraging clinical expertise to improve patient satisfaction, strengthen discharge planning, and enhance post-discharge support. It is a highly rewarding role for clinicians seeking autonomy while making a meaningful difference in the lives of a complex patient population.
