Job Summary The Clinical Care Coordinator service adopts a "whole-person" approach to address the client’s needs related to physical health, behavioral health, and social determinants of health. CCC involves the coordination of care between the behavioral health clinician and the clinical personnel of an external provider (e.g., primary care, another behavioral health provider, hospital). Clinical Care Coordination occurs when the practitioner via direct face-to-face contact, video‑conferencing, or telephone communicated treatment needs, assessments, and treatment information to external healthcare providers and facilitated appropriate linkages with other healthcare professionals, including transitions into or from a higher level of care or institutional settings. CCC also includes treatment planning and plan of care implementation activities that are separate from the diagnostic assessment service when the clinician and client are meeting face to face or via video conferencing. The Clinical Care Coordinator is responsible for ensuring that the client is at the appropriate LOC. If the clients fail to make progress or have met all of their treatment goals, it is the Clinical Care Coordinators’ responsibility to ensure timely assessment and transfer to a more appropriate LOC.
