Care Coordinator Jobs in California: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a care coordinator in California?
Most care coordinator roles in California require at minimum a bachelor's degree in social work, nursing, public health, or a related field. While California does not mandate a single state license specific to the care coordinator title, many employers require or strongly prefer a nationally recognized credential such as the Certified Case Manager (CCM) through the Commission for Case Manager Certification. Roles involving clinical assessment often require an active California RN or LCSW license issued by the California Board of Registered Nursing or the California Board of Behavioral Sciences.
Which companies hire care coordinators in California?
Employers hiring care coordinators in California right now include North East Medical Services, Stanford Health Care, and Clinica Sierra Vista, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. California's large integrated health systems and Medi-Cal managed care plans consistently represent a significant share of total openings across the state.
Which California cities have the most care coordinator jobs?
Burlingame, Los Angeles, and Palo Alto have the most care coordinator openings in California. Los Angeles dominates due to its density of hospital systems, Medi-Cal health plans, and federally qualified health centers, while San Francisco and San Diego draw volume from major academic medical centers, large insurers, and county health departments that anchor those regional markets.
Are there remote care coordinator jobs in California?
Yes, but they are less common than in purely desk-based fields because many care coordinator roles involve in-person patient contact, home visits, or on-site coordination within clinics and hospitals. About 7% of care coordinator openings tied to California are remote or hybrid as of June 2026. The functions most likely to be performed remotely are telephonic case management and utilization review work for managed care organizations.
How can I get hired as a care coordinator in California with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying for a care coordinator assistant, health navigator, or community health worker role at a California federally qualified health center or county health department, where prior clinical experience is not always required. Large California health systems such as Kaiser Permanente and Dignity Health run structured new-graduate and associate case management programs that train candidates from adjacent roles like medical assistant, patient services representative, or social work intern. Completing a California-recognized community health worker certificate program or pursuing CCM eligibility through an accredited internship significantly strengthens a candidacy at this level.
Where can I find and apply to care coordinator jobs in California?
You can find and apply to care coordinator jobs in California on Migrate Mate, which lists current California openings updated regularly. Search for roles by city or specialty, find the ones that fit your background, and apply directly to the employer through the listing.
