A dental insurance coordinator oversees the processing of insurance billing and payment for patients at a dental practice. In dental insurance coordinator jobs, your responsibilities include working with the insurance carrier to solve any coverage or financial issues, verifying insurance requirements for receiving health care, and providing coordination services as a liaison between the patient and insurer. You need a high school diploma or GED certificate in this career, as well as several years of experience in a clerical position, during which you can hone your customer service and administrative skills.
