Waymark is a team of healthcare providers, technologists, and builders whose mission is to bring the best healthcare to people with Medicaid benefits.

As an Outreach Specialist/Care Coordinator in the region, you will be Waymark’s frontline presence in and alongside healthcare facilities, often our first point of contact with our patients, and a key member of a startup team helping to shape and refine our workflows and build strong relationships with primary care physician partners.

- Accurately document each patient encounter in detail.

- Collaborate with the Waymark support team to test and refine internal workflows and co-design more efficient processes for supporting patient care.

- This is a hybrid role, involving remote work from home as well as working within healthcare provider facilities, as needed.

Minimum qualifications:

- Excellent verbal and written communication skills.

- Comfort tailoring communication to credibly and concisely communicate with primary care physicians and to communicate with patients in an empathetic and accessible manner.
