This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Clinical Operations Manager - Virtual Care Management (RN) based in United States.

You will manage these functions through a team of supervisors, ensuring patients receive timely follow-up, appropriate clinical support, and consistent care coordination. The position combines clinical credibility with operational leadership across multiple teams, workflows, queues, and coverage models. You will oversee performance, staffing, quality, compliance, and service delivery while translating operational data into practical workflow decisions. A key focus is ensuring strong follow-through, from test results and provider orders to chronic condition outreach, documentation, and escalation. You will also help develop scalable processes, support program growth, and maintain effective 24/7 coverage across a remote workforce. This is a fully remote U.S.-based leadership opportunity for an experienced RN who is highly organized, data-driven, and comfortable operating in a fast-paced virtual healthcare environment.

Lead daily care navigation operations, including case assignment, prioritization, aging, closure, and accountability for patient cases from initiation through resolution. Establish and enforce workflow standards for time-sensitive activities such as returned results, clinical rechecks, provider order follow-up, returned faxes, and referrals.

Ensure clinical concerns are promptly escalated to nursing and provider teams while maintaining required documentation and billing standards for monitoring services. Execute published staffing plans across caseload-based, coverage-based, and 24/7 operating models, making real-time staffing decisions when circumstances change. Manage schedule adherence, shift swaps, same-day absences, and planned overtime while escalating structural coverage needs to workforce operations. Participate in interviewing, selection, and onboarding while identifying staffing gaps early enough to support timely hiring. Build and maintain operational reporting covering throughput, case aging, schedule adherence, census, and quality, using the data to drive workflow decisions.

Partner with quality and compliance teams to meet clinical, HIPAA, and health plan contractual requirements, including audits and gap-closure activities. Contribute to workflow design, SOP development, testing, training, and operational implementation as programs, health plan partnerships, and platform capabilities evolve. Lead, develop, and hold supervisors accountable while building bench strength and maintaining clear role boundaries between leads and supervisors. Monitor team turnover and actively address retention through onboarding, workload management, scheduling practices, career development, and frontline leadership quality.
