Job description

This is a remote position.

We are looking for a warm, organized, and highly reliable Healthcare VA to support a fast-growing pelvic floor physical therapy practice.

This role combines patient communication, scheduling, insurance verification, and prior authorization. You will be the first point of contact for patients, so excellent spoken English, professionalism, discretion, and a reassuring phone manner are essential.

The practice serves an exclusively female patient population, many of whom are seeking care for sensitive pelvic health concerns. The ideal candidate should be comfortable having thoughtful, respectful conversations about healthcare needs and insurance coverage while maintaining a high level of confidentiality.

You will work closely with the clinical team to make sure patients receive timely responses, understand their insurance benefits, and are scheduled as quickly as possible.

Key Responsibilities

Manage all inbound and outbound patient communication through Weave during business hours.

Respond promptly to patient messages, questions, and scheduling requests.

Call and text new patient inquiries immediately to help convert inquiries into scheduled appointments.

Schedule patients and coordinate appointment-related updates.

Perform insurance eligibility and benefits verification for applicable plans.

Speak directly with patients about their insurance coverage, benefits, and expected costs, and explain information clearly and accurately.

Obtain prior authorizations through EviCore when required by the patient's insurance.

Work with insurance plans including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Moda, and PacificSource, as well as cash-pay patients.

Communicate patient scheduling updates, insurance status, and other relevant information to the clinical team through Slack.

Keep patient records, messages, and follow-ups organized and up to date.

Follow HIPAA and practice confidentiality requirements when handling patient information.

Support other front-desk and administrative tasks as needed.
