I am writing to recommend highly Tricia McCloskey for your company. I had the pleasure of working alongside Tricia at Carelon/Elevance Health for the past 3 years as coworker while we served as a Virtual Therapist. She played an amazing role where she demonstrated a key role in the development and unification of the department. Most extraordinary is Tricia's resourcefulness and her willingness to teach those resources with the group. Tricia worked with very difficult clients and she was able to guide them to succeed at a higher rate than anyone else. She did this with grace, calm, and compassion. Wherever Tricia goes next, she will be an asset and a gift for everyone involved. Jacqueline Szoychen, LCSWR

I am pleased to recommend Tricia, with whom I have had the opportunity to collaborate on various teams. As the Clinical Manager for our organization’s MetroPlus account, Tricia oversaw the daily operations of Utilization Management staff for Medicaid, Commercial, and Medicare plans. Her primary responsibilities included managing a census across various levels of care, including inpatient and outpatient services. Utilizing her expertise and meticulous attention to detail, she resolved authorization and claims issues, collaborated on performance improvement initiatives and contributed to clinical standard operating procedures for Downstate plans. She served as an invaluable resource for both Utilization and Management teams. Tricia consistently demonstrated professionalism, responsiveness, and a personable demeanor, making her a pleasure to work with.

Tricia is unique in that she has excellent clinical as well as operational skills. In her role as manager-I can attest to Tricia's sound clinical judgement and excelsior organization skills as she managed a team of 15+ clinicians in a very fast pace, intense work environment. In addition to these characteristics-she was a quick study when it came to data --and was able to learn how to use data analytics to find themes/patterns around population health matters that informed her work as well as the work of the team. I highly recommend Tricia for any future opportunities that involve this type of need/work.

To Whom It May Concern: I am writing this letter as a professional reference for Tricia McCloskey. I was fortunate enough to meet Tricia when I began my role as the General Manager for Carelon Behavioral Health and to say I have been impressed with her is an understatement. Prior to me starting in my role, Tricia was instrumental in starting a program for Carelon Behavioral Care. Not only did she come in as a therapist ready to see clients, Tricia was willing to create policies and procedures and all other items needed to effectively develop a clinical program. She effectively created the foundation which was a necessary roadmap for not only her success but the success of the other therapist around her. Tricia is a natural leader. As we were developing a new program, she was willing to report concerns and issues while bringing resolutions to the table. Tricia is solution focused and communicates with professional passion, always keeping the client’s needs as the highest priority. She has vision and innovation, which is essential in a leader. With her peers, Tricia is a role model. She has supported peers through the onboarding process and has been designated as a “go to” whenever they need some support, however she will re-direct staff back to management as needed. On a personal level, she is self-aware and has a positive attitude. Tricia keeps cool in stressful situations. Tricia is efficient and organized. She is the type of staff member and leader you want on your team. I appreciate the time I have had working with Tricia and would hire her again without reservation. Sincerely, Angela Edmonds, LCSW

I worked under the supervision of Tricia for 5 years at Phoenix house. Her excellent leadership, guidance and support helped me, and the rest of the staff get through the difficult changes the program was going through. With her knowledge and experience of Behavioral Health she was able to implement clinical programs that were beneficial in improving the function of the facility and the overall support for the resident's recovery. Her work ethic is extremely professional as well as empathic to the individuals she is serving. I would highly recommend Tricia to be considered for a supervisory position that could utilize her expertise and experience in the field of Behavioral Health and related roles in her profession.

Tricia is a dedicated and passionate professional who has a blend of strong administrative skills and savvy clinical expertise. I found Tricia to be honest, reliable, creative, knowledgeable, and innovative. As a leader Tricia is not afraid to roll her sleeves up and make connections with staff and clients alike. She consistently explores the roots of process and engages her team in projects that drive quality and performance. There’s also a hard to describe quality that Tricia possesses as she has a contagious positive energy and it helps her create a strength based culture for staff and client systems. It was no surprise that Tricia was promoted while we were at PH together. She has the tools and knowledge to impact any organization.

Tricia joining our team was a huge value add! She is a passionate, dedicated and hardworking team player! Her expertise, drive and extensive knowledge in process improvement helped get us ready to launch a new Telehealth program in Nee York (and many other states thereafter). Once our program went live, she dove right into her role providing outstanding clinical services to our client base. She was always willing to jump in and review or buildout workflows, provide suggested improvements and execute the tasks quickly.

Tricia and I started working together in 2016-2020. She is a pleasure to work with. Tricia at the time was the clinical manager of the MetroPlus account that Beacon/Carelon had. While I was working in the Single Case Agreement department. We worked on projects together specifically cleaning up pending authorizations for MetroPlus account and making sure Out of Agreements were not the outstanding issue. Tricia is very know knowledge in the clinical area, project management and overall a very good manager. If I ever had a question regarding authorization or the specific account, I did not hesitate to reach out. Tricia always provide an answer in a timely manner. I would recommend Tricia, for any area regarding, managerial work, clinical work or project management.

Tricia was my Manager. And let me tell you that Tricia was the best manager I ever had in many years. I worked with her as a Clinical Services Assistant for Metro Plus for 2 years and I learned so much from her. Tricia is a leader who helps others around her grow. She mentored me during our time together by having an open feedback and always so understanding and was their for her staff. She’s professional and goes above and beyond for her team. I truly miss working with Tricia!
