YOUR CONTRIBUTION TO OUR SUCCESS!

A Patient Care Manager contributes to AHF by utilizing experience, skills, education, and a thorough understanding of the Ryan White Care Act Program within their specific area. With a caring and knowledgeable focus, you will work with our providers and Healthcare Center team so that every Ryan White patient receives the support they require and access to available resources. This will include providing education and assistance so that eligibility for the program is understood. Working directly within the Healthcare Center, you will meet with patients and complete health risk/needs assessments, develop integrated care plans, and provide ongoing education to patients so that they understand their diagnoses and medications. You may also conduct home visits as clinically appropriate to complete assessments or follow up on patient needs, ensuring equitable access for patients with transportation or mobility barriers. For Ryan White contracts that combine psychosocial needs within Medical Care Coordination, you will understand mental health needs, addiction challenges, and basic needs such as housing, food, and clothing and develop relationships with programs and agencies serving those needs and facilitate referrals, support, and assistance for your patients who lack those services. You will also maintain an active and updated network of community resources to support housing stability, food access, transportation, behavioral health, legal aid, and other social determinants of health. You will also conduct ongoing retention calls to ensure no gap in care and uphold radical cooperation across divisions. As part of your role in retention and re-engagement, you will help identify and support clients at risk for falling out of care, coordinate with the Retention Outreach Specialist and other MCC teams, and implement interventions that reflect each client's stage of change and acuity level.

A Patient Care Manager enhances the reputation of AHF by  utilizing your case management experience. You will meet our patients where they are, identify strengths and opportunities for growth, and assist them with realistic goal setting. With your skills of collaboration and engagement, you will bring the essence of the Ryan White Care Act - the safety net for uninsured HIV/AIDS patients - to our most vulnerable population. By establishing Health Risk/Needs Assessments, Integrated Care Plans, referrals, behavioral health interventions, and support, your work will directly contribute to AHF’s success in meeting the deliverables of our Ryan White contract. Beyond the scope of the contract, your work contributes to measures established by the HIV/AIDS Bureau (HAB) Measures and the Department of Health and Human Services. You will assure the coordination, follow-up, and completion of medical treatments and/or care plan interventions so that these services ensure timely and coordinated access to medically appropriate levels of health and support services and continuity of care through ongoing assessment of the client’s and other key family members’ needs and personal support systems. You will verify the client’s eligibility for the ACA (Affordable Care Act) program and initiate enrollment for those who qualify to ensure broader access to healthcare services.

You will be a passionate advocate for our top initiatives.

To be successful as a Patient Care Manager it is crucial to ensure that the AHF Core Values and Mission stay top of mind with all that you do. At AHF we are nimble and able to adapt in a dynamic environment to assist in providing the best experience for our clients and workplace for our employees.
