  • Data Accuracy & Documentation: Accurately upload, scan, and attach referral documentation into the EHR and intake systems to ensure compliance, completeness, and audit readiness.
  • Communication & Coordination: Serve as a liaison between referring sources/providers, specialty offices, and patients to confirm referral receipt, communicate status updates, and assist with appointment scheduling.
  • Closing the Loop: Ensure referrals are properly documented and closed within the EHR, including obtaining and attaching specialist consultation notes when applicable.
Requirements:

Qualifications:

  • High School Diploma or GED required
  • Certified Medical Assistant (CMA) or related certification preferred

  • Attention to Detail: High level of accuracy in data entry, documentation, and insurance verification processes.
  • Communication Skills: Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to effectively interact with patients, providers, and healthcare staff.
