About the role

At AEG, we believe great patient experiences begin with great teams. As a Patient Care Coordinator you are responsible not only for front desk operations, but also for supporting patient flow, schedule optimization, and seamless coordination across the care team.

  • Execute appointment confirmation and reminder processes to reduce no-show rates and ensure patients are prepared for their visit.
  • Verify insurance eligibility and patient demographics prior to appointments; accurately enter and maintain complete information in EMR.
  • Maintain a clear understanding of insurance plans and effectively communicate coverage, benefits, and patient financial responsibility.
  • Prepare patient charts and required documentation in advance of visits to support efficient patient flow.
  • Collect and document all charges, co-pays, and payments into EMR; allocate balances appropriately and support claim preparation and submission.
  • Run reports and review accounts to ensure all charges are billed, filed, and up to date.
  • Monitor daily patient flow and provider schedules to identify bottlenecks, delays, or overlaps; communicate and adjust as needed to support efficient patient flow.
  • Proactively communicate with patients regarding wait times, delays, and next steps to maintain a positive experience.
  • Coordinate with clinical and optical teams to ensure smooth patient transitions and continuity of care throughout the visit.
  • Support patient retention efforts through follow-up, recall, and reactivation outreach, including annual and medically necessary appointments.
  • Assist in maintaining an organized, clean, and patient-ready front office environment.
  • Perform other duties as needed and as assigned by the Practice Manager, Assistant Practice Manager and/or Optometrist.
  • High school diploma or equivalent.
  • Basic computer literacy and ability to learn practice management systems (EMR).
  • Strong organizational skills with attention to detail and ability to manage multiple priorities.
  • Strong communication skills (verbal and written) with a focus on patient-centered service.
  • Strong interpersonal skills and ability to work collaboratively across teams.
  • Ability to proactively identify issues and contribute to solutions in a fast-paced environment.
  • Must be able to maintain patient and practice confidentiality.
