This is not an entry-level or front desk position. This role manages critical administrative functions, including medical records, MRI coordination, treatment authorizations, disability paperwork, attorney communications, and billing documentation. The ideal candidate is organized, accountable, and able to manage multiple priorities independently.

- Strong knowledge of medical terminology, medical records, insurance verification, and authorizations.
- Excellent communication, organizational, computer, and multitasking skills.
- Proficiency with EMR systems, Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, and insurance portals.
- Dependable, detail-oriented, flexible, and able to work independently without micromanagement.
- Willingness to take an "all hands on deck" approach in a small practice.
Requirements Check: Only candidates who are fully bilingual in English and Spanish AND have prior medical office experience will be considered.
Key Responsibilities
- Manage medical record requests from patients, attorneys, insurers, and medical facilities.

- Maintain organized tracking systems for outstanding requests, approvals, and administrative tasks.
- Coordinate and complete patient disability paperwork promptly and accurately upon receipt.

- Coordinate with staff and outside facilities to ensure continuity of patient care.
- Assist with other administrative duties as needed while maintaining strict patient confidentiality.
The Right Candidate We need someone who takes ownership and follows through
. You don't just submit authorizations—you track them to completion. You don't just forward paperwork—you ensure it's accurate and complete. You communicate professionally, prioritize independently, meet deadlines, and understand how timely follow-up affects patient care and practice operations.
We are looking for someone who recognizes what needs to be done and gets it done without constant supervision.
