Insurance Verification & Front Desk: Register patients, verify insurance eligibility, determine financial responsibility, collect co-pays, reconcile payment logs, and maintain EMR accuracy.
Patient Service: Educate patients on both clinical procedures and financial expectations, provide clear discharge instructions, and de-escalate concerns with empathy and professionalism.
Team & Compliance: Participate in daily huddles, maintain compliance logs (crash cart, fridge temps, etc.), support infection-control and HIPAA standards.

Completion of an accredited Medical Assistant program.
Active national MA certification (CMA, RMA, CCMA, or equivalent) at hire.
At least 1+ year of experience with insurance verification and patient registration required.
Current Basic Life Support (BLS) certification (or ability to obtain before starting).
