- Maintain accurate patient and payer information in the appropriate systems while documenting verification and authorization outcomes.
- Investigate benefit or approval discrepancies, using sound judgment to address issues and escalate concerns when needed.
- Support scheduling and front-end access workflows by helping align registration details with appointment and service requirements.
Other requirements for the Patient Registration position include and are not limited to:
- Previous experience in patient registration, insurance verification, authorization support, referrals, or a similar healthcare administrative role.
- Working knowledge of medical insurance processes and the ability to review coverage details accurately.
- Strong communication and customer service skills with the ability to assist patients in a compassionate and attentive manner.
- High attention to detail and the ability to manage documentation with accuracy in a fast-paced environment.
- Comfort using administrative or electronic systems to enter, update, and track patient and insurance information.
