Virtual Medical Front Desk & Patient Coordinator (Family Practice + Med Spa)

Role Overview

Join a busy, growing family practice and med spa as the first point of contact for patients. You’ll handle high-volume phones, schedule medical and aesthetic appointments, support referrals and prior authorizations (PAs), and complete light back-office admin. We’re looking for someone warm, professional, and

organized—Southern-style hospitality, crystal-clear English, and strong medical admin fundamentals.

Core Responsibilities

● Inbound/Outbound Phones (VoIP/OpenPhone): Answer promptly, triage questions, route messages, place reminder and follow-up calls, and text as needed.

● Scheduling: Book primary-care and med-spa appointments in the correct templates/time blocks; reschedule/cancel per policy; confirm pre-visit requirements.

● Referrals & Prior Authorizations: Prepare and submit referrals; initiate and track PAs (e.g., imaging such as C-spine MRI); follow up with payers and specialists until approved; document outcomes.

● Patient Intake/Admin: Collect/verify demographics and insurance details; update charts; send/receive forms; maintain accurate logs and spreadsheets.

● Coordination with Clinical Team: Relay time-sensitive messages to nurse/provider; close the loop on patient requests; keep the front/back aligned.

● Med Spa Support: Book consults/treatments into appropriate time slots; provide basic service info and route clinical questions to the team.

● Documentation & SOPs: Follow HIPAA-safe workflows; keep trackers current; suggest improvements to scripts, checklists, and SOPs.

• 3–4+ years in a healthcare front desk/medical admin or similar patient-facing role.

• Clear, easy-to-understand English on the phone (patients in the U.S. South).

• Working knowledge of referrals and prior authorizations (terminology, payer portals, status follow-up).
• Solid scheduling skills in an EHR/EMR (any system) and Google/Outlook calendars.

• Phone etiquette, de-escalation, and customer-service polish (warm, patient, solution-oriented).

• Detail accuracy with names/DOB/insurance; fast typing and thorough notes.

• Comfortable with VoIP tools (e.g., OpenPhone) and basic office apps (Docs/Sheets or Word/Excel).

• HIPAA awareness and strict confidentiality.

• Experience in primary care and/or aesthetics/med spascheduling.

• Familiarity with insurance verification basics, payer portals, and common imaging/lab workflows.

• Light familiarity with CPT/ICD terms (for context when communicating with payers/specialists).

•  Calls answered within target (e.g., ≤3 rings) and low abandonment.

• Same-day completion of voicemails/callbacks and patient messages.

• Accurate scheduling with minimal rework and correct visit types/time blocks.

• On-time referral/PA submissions and proactive status updates until approval.

• Clean documentation and zero HIPAA issues.
