Remote Nursing Jobs by Specialty

Let's be precise: these are not remote jobs, and we label them that way on every card. In-home assessment clinicians — mostly NPs, some RN and PA variants — drive to scheduled member homes and complete annual health-risk assessments for Medicare Advantage plans. CVS Health posts hundreds of these across specific metro areas, most structured as full-time, part-time, or per-diem with per-visit or hourly pay. No procedures, no ongoing treatment: one visit, one assessment, flexible scheduling. We carry them because they're a genuine off-the-floor path with schedule control — under an honest label.

Case management (or care management) RNs coordinate care for high-cost, high-complexity members — typically by phone or video, with periodic chart reviews. Most roles are 100% remote with predictable Monday-to-Friday hours. Common specialties: maternity, oncology, behavioral health, complex chronic, transitions of care.

Telepsychiatry platforms are hiring PMHNPs faster than almost any other remote clinical category — virtual med management and therapy caseloads, seen from home. Platform postings for prescribing clinicians on the board list compensation from roughly $170K upward. Alongside psych NP roles, the board carries a small number of adjacent licensed behavioral clinician roles (psychologist, LCSW) at the same platforms. Panel size, synchronous-hours expectations, and state coverage vary a lot between platforms — the FAQs below cover what to ask.

Telehealth (or virtual care) nurses provide care directly to patients via video and asynchronous messaging. Common settings: chronic disease management at companies like Omada, Virta, and Livongo; primary-care telehealth at Maven, Hims/Hers, and Galileo; behavioral health at Talkiatry, Brightline, and similar. Schedules vary widely. Below: every telehealth RN role on RemoteRN today.

Utilization review (UR) nursing has become one of the most accessible off-the-floor career paths for RNs. Health plans, hospital systems, and third-party administrators all need RNs to apply medical-necessity criteria (InterQual, MCG, NCQA standards) to authorize care. Most UR roles are fully remote, daytime weekday shifts, with salaries between $80K and $115K.

Telephonic triage RNs assess patient symptoms over the phone, applying evidence-based protocols (Schmitt-Thompson is the most common) to direct callers to self-care, appointments, urgent care, or the ED. Roles span pediatric advice lines, employer health hotlines, and 24/7 nurse triage for health plans. Schedules vary — some include nights and weekends, some are weekday-only.

Remote nurse educator roles come in two families: patient educators, who coach members through a condition program by phone or video (cardiopulmonary, diabetes, maternity), and clinical educators, who train clinicians on products, protocols, or documentation. Payers and pharma/device companies post both — CVS's patient-education roles are the recurring example on this board. Inventory in this specialty is thinner than case management or UR, so check the related hubs too; salary spreads are wide and each listing shows the employer's posted band when one exists.

CDI specialists review inpatient charts in real time, query physicians for documentation that captures the full severity of illness, and ensure DRG-accurate coding. Most CDI roles are remote, with a steady weekday schedule and salaries between $90K and $125K. CCDS or CDIP certification is preferred but rarely required for entry. Below: every RN CDI role on RemoteRN today.

Quality management is one of the most reliable desk paths off the floor: health plans need RNs to run HEDIS medical-record review, chase STARS measures, audit clinical quality, and prepare NCQA accreditation evidence. CVS/Aetna and Humana post these roles continuously as "Quality Management Nurse Consultant" and "STARS Improvement Clinical Professional." Listings currently on the board post salary bands from roughly $63K to $137K. Most are fully remote with standard weekday hours; HEDIS season (roughly January through May) is the annual crunch.

Clinical informatics nurses bridge bedside experience and IT — designing EHR workflows, optimizing order sets, supporting clinical decision support tools, and translating between clinicians and developers. Roles exist at hospital systems, EHR vendors (Epic, Cerner/Oracle, Meditech), and digital health startups. Most are fully remote; some require a few onsite days during go-live. Salaries range $95K-$140K. Below: every clinical informatics RN role on RemoteRN today.

Pharma and medical-device companies hire nurses into clinical research associate (CRA) and research specialist roles — monitoring trial sites, verifying source data, and keeping studies compliant with GCP. Pfizer and Medtronic listings are live on the board now, posting $110K-$160K for CRA levels and past $200K for senior and principal research roles. Fair warning on the word "remote": CRA roles are home-based but most include real site-visit travel, and each listing here shows its work setting honestly.
