This Insurance Specialist position offers both dental and medical insurance services for the UNC Adams School of Dentistry. The Insurance Specialist works in all areas of billing and reimbursement, including private dental insurance companies and managed care organizations. This role requires specialized knowledge of insurance industry standards related to billing and reimbursement, along with a strong understanding of accounts receivable.

This position will require extensive communication with various insurance companies, along with effective use of insurance portals.
