DISCLOSURE - MULTI-ENTITY CONTRACTOR ROLE:
This 1099 Independent Contractor role for a Entitlements Case Manager includes responsibilities that span across the following two organizations, all operating under shared leadership:
FOCUS #1: Lighthouse Behavioral Health Center, LLC
FOCUS #2: Community Wellness Outpatient Mental Health Center, LLC
FOCUS #3: Community Wellness Psychiatric Rehabilitation Program
As an independent contractor, you will maintain separate contractual agreements with each organization. You will invoice and receive compensation separately from each entity based on the time worked and services delivered for their respective programs. This means you are not an employee of any of the entities and are instead engaged as a self-employed contractor for each.
Though the contactor is paid on a fee for service basis and not an hourly basis, the services will require approximately 40 hours per week in to render assigned services as scheduled over 5 days, with an estimated one-half of the services rendered allocated to each organization. While day-to-day scheduling and care coordination may be managed collaboratively to support continuity across programs, each organization retains responsibility for its own scope of work, compliance requirements, and payment processes.
As a 1099 contractor, you are responsible for your own taxes, benefits, and liability coverage, and you must adhere to all contractual terms and professional licensing requirements relevant to each organization.
Overview
Generally, assigned clients will reside in community based group homes. Assigned clients who do not reside in group homes may receive services in your assigned community based office, at the company's main office, or via telehealth if you or the client are in one of these locations. We are seeking a qualified and licensed Entitlements Case Manager to provide case management services on an independent contractor basis.
