We make it easier to get answers, access high-quality care quickly, and feel supported throughout treatment and beyond. Today, Thyme Care is a market-leading value-based oncology care enabler, partnering with national and regional health plans, providers, and employers to deliver better outcomes and lower costs for thousands of people across the country. Our model combines high-touch human support with powerful technology and AI to bring together everyone involved in a person’s cancer journey: caregivers, oncologists, health plans, and employers. As a tech-native organization, we believe technology should strengthen the human connection at the center of care. Through data science, automation, and AI, we simplify complexity, improve collaboration, and help care teams focus on what matters most: supporting people through cancer. Looking ahead, our vision is bold: to become a household name in cancer care, where every person diagnosed asks for Thyme Care by name. If you’re inspired to make cancer care more human and to help reimagine what’s possible, we’d love to meet you. Together, we can build a future where every person with cancer feels truly cared for, in every moment that matters. ## WHAT YOU’LL DO As a Thyme Care Clinical Social Worker, you'll be a vital resource for our members and their care network, offering comprehensive psychosocial and emotional support during their cancer journey via phone, email, text, and telemedicine.

Assess, diagnose, and provide therapeutic interventions to address behavioral health needs. - Crisis intervention: Providing immediate support and intervention in behavioral health crises and sudden changes in prognosis or end-of-life decisions. - Resource linkage: Identifying and connecting patients and families with relevant community resources when there are complex social or behavioral health needs. - Care coordination: Collaborating with the healthcare team, including oncologists, behavioral health providers, nurses, and other specialists, to ensure patients receive coordinated care and address any social or emotional barriers impacting treatment adherence. - Advocacy: Advocating for patients' needs with insurance companies, healthcare providers, and other relevant agencies to access necessary treatment and support services. - Education and support group facilitation: Leading support groups for cancer patients and their families, providing education on cancer-related topics, and facilitating peer-to-peer support.
