The ideal candidate brings prior medical assistant or healthcare administrative experience—with a strong preference for OB/GYN exposure—and excels in comprehensive chart preparation, medical records tracking, and insurance coordination. In this role, you will take ownership of chart readiness prior to scheduled patient visits, ensuring all progress notes, superbills, lab orders, and ultrasound reports are complete and organized to deliver a seamless care experience.

• Lab Requisitions & Insurance Verification: Verify insurance coverage and prepare appropriate Quest Diagnostics or Labcorp requisition forms in alignment with specific payer guidelines.
• Patient Care Coordination & Compliance: Maintain complete, meticulously organized patient records and adhere strictly to HIPAA privacy regulations in a remote workflow.

Requirements
