Medical Disability Case Manager

Join a high-impact team supporting U.S. Veterans through the Medical Disability Examination (MDE) program led by Deloitte. As a Case Manager, you will play a critical role in ensuring Veterans receive timely and accurate medical examinations that directly support their Compensation & Pension (C&P) claims with the Department of Veterans Affairs.

In this role, you will actively manage cases from start to finish-tracking exam scheduling, monitoring reschedules, verifying required documentation, and ensuring each case progresses smoothly through the process. You will coordinate closely with multiple stakeholders, including internal teams, clinic staff, government partners, and Veterans themselves.

This position requires strong organization, communication, and problem-solving skills, as you will navigate complex situations, manage competing priorities, and interact with individuals from diverse backgrounds. Success in this role comes from your ability to stay detail-oriented, adapt to changing circumstances, and maintain professionalism while supporting Veterans who may require patience, empathy, and clear guidance throughout the process.

Additionally, this role offers the opportunity to take on leadership responsibilities, including supporting team workflows, mentoring peers, and helping drive operational efficiency in a fast-paced, metrics-driven environment.
