• As of January 2025, Peers are now included in FUH and FUM HEDIS measures. https://www.ncqa.org/blog/hedis-my-2025-whats-new-whats-changed-whats-retired/ - SAMHSA released revised guidance around EPSDT https://www.medicaid.gov/federal-policy-guidance/downloads/sho24005.pdf and continued to encourage states to utilized Peer Supporters.

• Mental health workforce shortages continue. https://nihcm.org/publications/the-behavioral-health-care-workforce-shortages-solutions Equal Opportunity Employer: At Somethings, we’re committed to building a workplace where diversity is not just welcomed, it’s celebrated.

• Build a data‑driven case study: Use Excel to create a one‑page dashboard that tracks key clinical metrics (e.g., teen engagement rates, outcome scores, peer specialist caseloads). Show formulas, pivot tables, and conditional formatting that demonstrate how you’d monitor the network’s impact and report to Medicaid Managed Care partners. Include this as an attachment or a link in your application.
• Show remote supervision expertise: In your cover letter and interview, reference specific tele‑health platforms (e.g., Zoom for Healthcare, Doxy.me) you’ve used to coach Certified Peer Specialists across time zones. Cite concrete examples of how you set performance standards, conducted virtual case reviews, and maintained compliance with state health agency regulations while working fully remote.
• Highlight Medicaid/State health agency experience: Prepare a concise portfolio slide that maps your past work to Somethings’ target audience—e.g., how you navigated Medicaid billing codes, collaborated with Managed Care Organizations, or implemented evidence‑based teen suicide prevention programs. Interviewers will look for familiarity with the funding and reporting structures that drive their scaling effort.
• Demonstrate peer‑specialist training design: Draft a brief sample curriculum (1–2 pages) for onboarding new Certified Peer Specialists, incorporating adult‑learning principles, role‑play scenarios, and measurable competency checklists. Bring this to the interview or upload it to your online portfolio to prove you can translate clinical expertise into scalable training.
• Negotiate with impact metrics in mind: Research salary bands for remote Clinical Supervisors in the mental‑health sector (typically $90‑$120 K base plus performance bonuses). Prepare a justification that ties your Excel‑based reporting skills and proven outcomes (e.g., reduced suicide attempt rates by X % in a previous role) to the revenue growth Somethings expects from Medicaid contracts. Use these numbers to request a base salary at the higher end of the range plus a KPI‑linked bonus structure.
