An insurance coordinator typically works in the health care industry and helps to determine what insurance benefits are available to patients. As an insurance coordinator, you confirm coverage with the insurance company, review benefits with patients, and submit claims for payment. There are no formal education requirements to pursue a career as an insurance coordinator, but many have an associate degree in business or a related field. Additional qualifications include knowledge of insurance claims, customer service experience, and strong organizational skills. Insurance coordinators often work for medical and dental offices, hospitals or other healthcare facilities, and insurance companies.
