    Works closely with clinical team to identify and remedy scenarios where social determinants of health are negatively impacting disease process.

    Effectively communicates with referral sources external to Innovive to ensure a seamless transfer of patient care from Innovive to other points of care, and successful coordination back to Innovive.

    Ensures that relevant documentation to support MSW activities are completed in EMR, Salesforce, and any other necessary platforms.
