• Ensure accurate scanning and indexing of insurance cards, IDs, and required medical consent forms into the EHR.

• Route high-volume phone lines, coordinating seamlessly with the back-office clinical team regarding room availability and patient status.

• Maintain a pristine, organized, and compliant front office environment.

Qualifications & Requirements

• Experience: Minimum 1–2 years of dedicated medical front office, patient registration, or medical billing experience (Urgent Care or Emergency Department background is highly preferred).

• Insurance Competency: Strong working knowledge of health insurance terminology, copay structures, and real-time eligibility checks.

• Technical Skills: Advanced proficiency with modern Electronic Health Record (EHR) platforms and practice management software.

• Attributes: High emotional intelligence, exceptional verbal communication, and a calm demeanor in a high-velocity healthcare environment.

We operate a streamlined, modern facility where administrative excellence is respected as a core pillar of patient care. We offer competitive compensation, comprehensive benefits, and a structured team environment built on operational efficiency.
