About Nema Health

Nema Health is a survivor-and clinician-led virtual treatment program for PTSD and trauma. We are on a mission to help all trauma survivors find lasting peace & healing. Nema provides virtual, evidence-based treatment that helps people feel better faster—and stay better longer. We are committed to delivering care that’s accessible, trauma-specialized, and deeply patient-centered.

At Nema, we offer employees an unparalleled career opportunity: the chance to be part of a mission-driven company while shaping its future during a pivotal stage of growth. If you’re someone who thrives in fast-moving environments, values systems thinking, and cares deeply about expanding access to mental health care, you could be a great fit.

About the Role

By acting as a central hub that supports clinicians, enhances patient care, and improves overall workflow, the Care Coordinator will allow the clinical team to do what they do best: providing high-quality therapeutic care. The Care Coordinator is also a vital part of the Clinical Operations department by acting as a crucial link between patients, providers, and the overall administrative system, ensuring operational efficiency, patient satisfaction, and a streamlined patient journey.

You’ll be using your organizational expertise to manage complex schedules and workflows, ensuring every detail is accounted for. And you’ll be doing so as part of a collaborative, mission-aligned team working to expand access to high-quality trauma care.

This role is best suited for someone with strong interpersonal skills, a bias for action, an interest in problem-solving, and is excited to help build a company that puts people first. 

Responsibilities

• EMR Onboarding & Intake Completion
• • New Patient Packet Management: Proactively reach out to prospective patients to ensure all intake forms are completed accurately prior to intake.
  • Troubleshooting EMR Setup: Provide support to prospective patients via Zoom or other outreach methods for EMR access and usage issues.
    
    
• Care Coordination & Navigation
• • Coordinate Collateral Calls: Provide initial outreach to all external mental health providers to establish a collaborative touchpoint with Nema, ensuring ROIs have been sent, and educating them on Nema's treatment program.
  • Record clinical collateral: Document important information as given by outside providers. Alert therapists if needed for additional contact to collateral sources.
  • Prior Authorization management: Communicate relevant clinical information to health plan partners in order to secure treatment authorization for patients.
  • Continuity of Care: Prepare and send discharge summary emails to external providers upon patient completion of intensive treatment, and conduct phone/email outreach if patients prematurely end treatment.
  • Referral Management: Coordinate external referrals for follow-up mental health care as indicated by Nema clinicians.
  • Manage Phone/Fax Lines: Managing incoming lines, voicemails, and faxes for any non-admissions and billing-related calls.
  • Patient Advocacy: Addressing patient concerns via phone and EMR chat, answering non-clinical questions, and escalating complex issues to the appropriate clinical staff.
  • Patient Feedback: Collect and relay patient feedback to the appropriate clinical and leadership teams to continuously improve the patient experience.
    
    
• Post-Intensive Treatment Coordination
• • Daily Operations Support: Serving as the point person for internal operations support for a variety of miscellaneous items that come up internally on a day-to-day basis. These include questions from the clinical team about scheduling, program policies, special situations, or troubleshooting issues.
  • Group Admin Management: Maintain skills group checklist database to ensure patients have uninterrupted access to closed skills-based groups (i.e., ensure patient forms, insurance authorization, patient confirmation, and therapists’ EMR access are all completed prior to the start of a new skills group).
  • Group Enrollment Management: Managing new group enrollment, tracking when new group enrollment hasn’t met its minimum number of attendees; sending internal communications to bolster attendance. Manage group postponements, reschedules, and group cancellations as needed.
