• Collaborate with the provider and existing Medical Assistant to ensure seamless operations and patient satisfaction.
   
• Follow up on outstanding authorizations, appointments, and patient concerns.
   
• Perform additional tasks as needed to support the provider’s workflow and maintain operational excellence.
   

Qualifications:

• Prior experience in a healthcare office environment required (Medical Assistant, Front Desk, Office Coordinator, or similar roles).
   
• Strong understanding of insurance processes, patient billing, and basic medical office workflows.
   
• Ability to work independently in a remote environment with minimal supervision.
   
• Excellent time management, communication, and problem-solving skills.
   
• Comfortable working in a high-volume, fast-paced setting.
   
• Tech-savvy with the ability to quickly learn and navigate practice management and EMR systems.
