About the role

  • The "First Impression": Conduct rapid outreach to new referrals, welcoming them to the program and setting the tone for their care journey.
  • Intake & Eligibility (The VOB): Perform Verification of Benefits (VOB) and confirm program qualification to ensure a seamless billing path.
  • The Calendar Lead: Own the scheduling and rescheduling loop. You are responsible for ensuring patients show up for their E/M visits and resolving "no-show" hurdles.
  • Tech Troubleshooting: Act as a "Member Concierge," helping patients navigate our platform, sign consents, and fix audio/video issues before their appointments.
  • Data Integrity: Maintain a "Zero Inbox" mentality within our Case Management Systems, ensuring every interaction is documented for clinical continuity and reimbursement.
  • Startup Agility: Assist the Operations team in testing new workflows, documenting "what works," and taking on special projects as the company scales.

Requirements

  • 1–3 years of experience in a patient-facing, high-volume administrative, or customer success role (Healthcare experience is a plus, but a "service-first" mindset is required).
  • Technical Native: You can navigate multiple software tools (Slack, EMRs, Google Suite) simultaneously without breaking a sweat.
  • Exceptional Communication: You are comfortable on the phone and in writing—able to explain complex insurance or tech issues with empathy and clarity.
  • Detail Obsessed: You notice the missing signature or the transposed phone number that others might miss.
  • The "Startup Spirit": You are comfortable with ambiguity and excited by the chance to help define a role as we grow.
