This is not an entry-level MDS role. We are looking for a clinically strong RN who understands reimbursement, quality measures, managed care communication, and interdisciplinary coordination in a skilled nursing facility setting.

If you are confident in PDPM, experienced in reviewing Quality Measures, and comfortable working directly with Managed Care Organizations, we want to speak with you.

The RN MDS Coordinator is responsible for leading the Resident Assessment Instrument (RAI/MDS) process while also supporting case management functions to ensure accurate reimbursement, quality outcomes, and smooth care transitions.

• Monitor and review Quality Measures (QMs) and implement improvement strategies
• Track Case Mix Index (CMI) trends and participate in reimbursement audits
• Educate nursing staff on documentation standards and regulatory compliance
• Support survey readiness and participate in quality improvement initiatives
• Maintain HIPAA compliance and protect resident PHI
• Provide occasional weekend coverage as needed

• Current, unencumbered Florida RN license (required)
• Minimum 2+ years MDS experience in a Skilled Nursing Facility (required)
• Case Management experience in a SNF setting (required)
• Strong knowledge of PDPM, MDS 3.0, and Medicare/Managed Care reimbursement
• Experience communicating directly with Managed Care Organizations
• Experience reviewing and improving CMS Quality Measures
• Strong understanding of SNF regulatory requirements
• Valid CPR certification (must remain current)
• Strong analytical, documentation, and leadership skills
• Proficiency with EHR systems and Microsoft Office
• Physical ability to meet job requirements (standing, walking, lifting up to 60–70 lbs as needed)

• Competitive salary based on experience
• Daily Pay option available
• Comprehensive benefits package (Medical, Dental, Vision, 401k, and more)
• Supportive leadership and a collaborative clinical team
• Monday–Friday primary schedule with improved work‑life balance
• Growth opportunities within the HSM network
