Primary Responsibilities include but are not limited to:

• Greet patients with a welcoming presence as they arrive at the clinic, ensuring a positive first impression and a comfortable check-in experience.

• Maintain strict HIPAA compliance in all patient interactions, documentation, and communications — always protecting patient privacy and confidentiality.
• Respond promptly to communications from team members and organizational leadership via email, phone, and internal messaging platforms.
• Encompass basic knowledge of general insurance and billing procedures to either directly answer or escalate questions from patients as necessary.
