Your welcoming and organized approach contributes to a positive experience for our patients and efficient clinic operations.

  • Financial Management: Contribute to effective financial management by processing patient refunds, handling payments, and re-billing insurance companies as needed. Your attention to financial details helps us provide quality care.
  • Continuous Learning: Stay up to date with third-party billing and reimbursement procedures, clinic financial policies, and industry knowledge. This knowledge empowers you to provide the best support to our patients and maintain compliance.
  • Documentation and Reporting: Prepare and submit daily productivity reports, track trends in accounts receivable, and recommend resolutions for any issues encountered. Your documentation and reporting are vital for the clinic's success.
  • Proactive Collections: Take a proactive approach to managing account receivables, including identifying trends, denial issues, or irregularities affecting resolution. You'll play a key role in ensuring our financial operations run efficiently.
