- Integrate Care Infrastructure & Panel Tracking: Actively participate in interdisciplinary huddles, maintain registry accuracy, and monitor personal KPIs (billable hours, documentation turnaround, and show rates) to optimize clinical outcomes across the program panel.

- Collaborate with the member, family, and healthcare providers to develop an individualized plan of care.

- Develop and coordinate community resources with emphasis on medical, behavioral, suicide prevention, and social services.

- Identify and initiate referrals for social service programs – including financial, psycho-social, community, and state supportive services.
