Care Manager Jobs in Texas: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a care manager in Texas?
Most care manager roles in Texas require an active RN license from the Texas Board of Nursing or a licensed clinical social worker credential from the Texas State Board of Social Worker Examiners. From there, employers typically look for clinical experience before moving into a care management function. Earning the Certified Case Manager credential through the Commission for Case Manager Certification strengthens your candidacy and is required for senior roles at many large Texas health systems.
Which companies hire care managers in Texas?
Employers hiring care managers in Texas right now include Superior HealthPlan, Molina Healthcare, and Harris Health, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Texas's large managed care market, driven by one of the country's biggest Medicaid programs, means health plans and integrated delivery networks post care manager openings at a higher volume and more consistently than in most other states.
Which Texas cities have the most care manager jobs?
Houston, San Antonio, and Dallas have the most care manager openings in Texas. Houston's concentration of major hospital systems and health plan headquarters drives the highest volume, while Dallas is a hub for managed care and insurance operations, and San Antonio's large military and VA population sustains steady demand for care managers who specialize in complex chronic and behavioral health populations.
Are there remote care manager jobs in Texas?
Yes, and more than most clinical roles allow, because a meaningful portion of care management work involves telephone and telehealth outreach, documentation, and care coordination rather than hands-on patient contact. About 68% of care manager openings tied to Texas are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, reflecting how health plans and managed care organizations have built distributed care teams. Utilization review and telephonic case management roles are the most consistently remote.
How can I get hired as a care manager in Texas with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is securing a direct patient care role first, such as a staff RN or medical social worker, at a Texas health system like Methodist Health System, Christus Health, or Baylor Scott and White, then transitioning internally. Many large Texas health plans run new-to-care-management onboarding cohorts for nurses moving from the floor. Earning the Certified Case Manager credential early and gaining exposure to Medicaid managed care populations significantly accelerates the move into a dedicated care manager position.
Where can I find and apply to care manager jobs in Texas?
