Job description
This role is part of a new company we are actively incubating in the US care navigation space. This is a chance to be on the ground floor of something being built from scratch.
As a Patient Navigator (RN), you'll work directly with patients facing serious, complex illnesses - cancer, congestive heart failure, COPD, chronic kidney disease, dementia, helping them understand their diagnosis, navigate treatment decisions and coordinate care across specialists.
You'll work under the general supervision of a billing practitioner, and your work will be reimbursed through Medicare's Principal Illness Navigation (PIN) codes (G0023/G0024). Translation: this is a sustainable, reimbursable model that pays for exactly the kind of clinical coordination patients with serious illnesses desperately need.
Responsibilities
- Build trusting relationships with patients and families facing serious, life-altering diagnoses
Conduct comprehensive assessments to understand the patient's clinical status, treatment goals, and barriers to care
Educate patients on their disease, treatment options, side effects, warning signs, and when to escalate concerns
Prepare patients for appointments with specialists - what questions to ask, what to expect, how to advocate for themselves
Facilitate informed decision-making about treatment options, clinical trials, palliative care, and advance care planning
Track treatment adherence, identify gaps in care, and intervene before problems escalate
Provide emotional support and help patients cope with the psychological burden of serious illness
Coordinate across the care team - oncologists, cardiologists, PCPs, specialists, pharmacies, home health, social workers
Schedule appointments, manage referrals, and ensure smooth care transitions (hospital to home, specialist to PCP)
Monitor treatment plans and medication regimens, flagging issues to the billing practitioner
Document your navigation activities with precision (time spent, activities performed, clinical assessments) so we can bill Medicare and sustain the program
This role is remote-first.
Requirements
- Active RN license (multi-state compact preferred)
3+ years of clinical nursing experience, with strong preference for oncology, cardiology, pulmonary, nephrology, or other serious illness specialties
Deep clinical knowledge of disease-specific care—treatment pathways, medication management, side effects, escalation protocols
Care coordination experience - you've navigated complex patients across multiple providers and know how to keep things from falling through the cracks
Comfort with documentation - you're organized, detail-oriented, and understand that good documentation = sustainable programs
Experience with Medicare patients or managed care populations
