• Schedule appointments and coordinate with clinical staff to keep things running smoothly.
• Verify insurance and collect payments with accuracy and transparency.
• Support registration and check-in processes, ensuring patients feel prepared and informed.
• Keep electronic health records updated and organized.
• Maintain a clean, calm, and welcoming front desk environment.
• Assist with billing and claims when needed.
• Help resolve patient questions or concerns in a respectful and timely manner.
• Collaborate with administrative and clinical staff to ensure excellent service delivery.

Who You Are

• A compassionate communicator who enjoys helping others.
• Skilled at juggling multiple tasks without losing focus or friendliness.
• Comfortable working with children and families under stress or uncertainty.
• Technically savvy, with experience in Microsoft Office and electronic health record systems.
• Experienced in customer service or medical/dental office reception (minimum 1 year required).
• Familiar with medical or dental terminology (preferred).
• Committed to maintaining patient confidentiality and professionalism.

Required

• High school diploma or equivalent.
• 1 year in a customer-facing role.
• Strong organizational and time-management skills.
• Basic understanding of insurance, billing, and front-office procedures.
