About The Position
Acentra Health is looking for a Clinical Assessor to join our growing team. Acentra Health is seeking clinical assessors statewide in North Carolina for an exciting opportunity. You work out of your home office and travel to assessment locations in your region. Under the Personal Care Services (PCS) program, services are provided to NC Medicaid Beneficiaries who have a medical condition, cognitive impairment, or disability who demonstrate unmet needs for hands-on assistance with qualifying activities of daily living (ADLs). The PCS Assessor is responsible for the completion of needs-based eligibility determinations for North Carolinians who are applying for these Medicaid-funded personal care services provided in their home or in adult care or supervised living homes. Under the Community Alternatives (CAP) Program, home and community-based waivers provide cost-neutral alternatives to institutionalization for Beneficiaries, in specified target populations, who would be at risk for institutionalization if specialized Waiver services are not available. Services are intended for situations where no household member, relative, caregiver, landlord, community agency, volunteer agency, or third-party payer is able or willing to meet the assessed and required medical, psychosocial, and functional needs of the approved CAP Beneficiary. The CAP/PCS Assessor is responsible for completion of needs-based assessments of level of care (LOC) to allow targeted individuals to remain in or return to a home and community-based setting. Assessments are generally performed in the beneficiary's primary residence. Position is hybrid. Candidates should be based within Mecklenburg County of North Carolina to be able to cover the field work involved.
