UnitedHealthcare is a company that''s on the rise. We''re expanding in multiple directions, across borders and, most of all, in the way we think.

Make yourself at home with us and start doing your life''s best work.(sm) As a Care Coordinator working with Medicaid members you''ll wear many hats, and work in a variety of environments. Sometimes, you''ll interact with members leaving the hospital - possibly with new medications or diagnoses.
