Clinical Case Manager Jobs in Tennessee: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a clinical case manager in Tennessee?
The most direct path is earning a clinical license in Tennessee, typically as a licensed clinical social worker through the Tennessee Department of Health's Health Related Boards or as a registered nurse through the Tennessee Board of Nursing, followed by case management experience in a hospital, managed care, or community health setting. Employers also strongly prefer the Certified Case Manager credential from the Commission for Case Manager Certification, which requires a qualifying healthcare license and supervised practice hours before sitting for the exam.
Which companies hire clinical case managers in Tennessee?
Employers hiring clinical case managers in Tennessee right now include Centerstone, Covenant Health, and Southeast Center of Excellence, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Tennessee's large managed care and Medicaid managed care organizations, alongside major hospital systems concentrated in Nashville and Memphis, make up the majority of consistent full-time openings in the state.
Which Tennessee cities have the most clinical case manager jobs?
Chattanooga, Martin, and Madison account for the most clinical case manager openings in Tennessee. Nashville leads because it is home to a dense concentration of major hospital systems, managed care headquarters, and behavioral health networks, while Memphis draws demand from its large regional medical centers and federally qualified health centers, and Knoxville's University of Tennessee Medical Center and expanding community health organizations drive hiring in East Tennessee.
Are there remote clinical case manager jobs in Tennessee?
Yes, and more than many clinical roles. About 0% of clinical case manager openings tied to Tennessee are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting the shift by managed care organizations and insurance-based employers toward telephone and telehealth-based case management. Utilization review and Medicaid care coordination positions are the most consistently remote, while hospital-based discharge planning and community health roles typically remain on-site.
How can I get hired as a clinical case manager in Tennessee with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is starting in a care coordinator, patient navigator, or discharge planning assistant role at a Tennessee hospital system such as HCA Healthcare or Vanderbilt University Medical Center, which regularly hire candidates with a bachelor's degree in social work or nursing who lack full case management experience. Completing a field placement or practicum in a Tennessee community mental health center counts as supervised hours toward the CCM credential and signals readiness to hiring managers. Obtaining a Tennessee clinical social work license, even at the associate level, gives applicants a clear edge over unlicensed candidates competing for the same entry-level openings.
Where can I find and apply to clinical case manager jobs in Tennessee?
You can find and apply to clinical case manager jobs in Tennessee on Migrate Mate, which lists current Tennessee openings from hospitals, managed care organizations, behavioral health providers, and community health employers across the state.
