Job Description

CVS Health is a leading health innovation company dedicated to helping people on their path to better health. With a commitment to making health care more accessible, convenient, and compassionate, CVS Health integrates its vast resources across pharmacies, clinics, and health plans to provide tailored solutions that improve the health and well-being of individuals and communities. As a foundational player in the healthcare industry, CVS Health serves millions of people daily by simplifying the process of care and ensuring quality outcomes through innovative approaches and passionate colleagues.

This position is within CVS Health's Aetna team, a recognized industry leader focused on serving dual eligible populations—individuals enrolled in both Medicare and Medicaid—who face complex health and social challenges. The role is designed to elevate patient care through a collaborative approach, using best-in-class clinical and operational models that support members’ unique health care and social needs comprehensively. As a Case Manager, you will utilize a strategic, multidimensional process of assessment, planning, facilitation, care coordination, evaluation, and advocacy, aimed at optimizing quality and cost-effective outcomes for members.

You will be part of an expanding initiative that seeks to improve lives across new markets nationwide, addressing the full continuum of care needs. The Case Manager role is vital in bridging members, providers, and community organizations, ensuring that each individual’s health journey is managed holistically and with compassion. Your work will involve acting as a liaison among various stakeholders while implementing case management activities that support catastrophic and chronically ill members.

Operating primarily within Cook County, Illinois, this full-time role requires flexibility and a willingness to travel up to 50% of the time to meet members in multiple settings, such as homes, workplaces, or physician offices. This mobility is essential to effectively coordinate care and foster stronger connections between all parties involved in member treatment plans.

The Case Manager will prepare all necessary documentation, consult with multidisciplinary teams, communicate with physicians regarding care plans, and provide education focused on prevention and optimal medical outcomes. Compliance with relevant laws, regulations, and carrier-specific instructions is mandatory, along with ongoing evaluation of members’ needs, eligibility, and responses to interventions.

This role offers a competitive salary range from $66,575 to $142,576 annually and includes eligibility for CVS Health bonus, commission, or short-term incentive programs. The comprehensive benefits package supports the physical, emotional, and financial well-being of employees and their families, highlighting CVS Health's dedication to fostering supportive and inclusive work environments. If you are a compassionate, skilled Registered Nurse with a passion for case management and patient advocacy, this opportunity at CVS Health could be the next step in your career.
