Urgent Care Front Desk Insurance & Billing SUPERHERO WANTED!
 
Help Us Keep Life Uninterrupted!
At American Family Care, we're not just treating patients – we're revolutionizing how people access healthcare. As the nation's leading urgent care provider with over 200 clinics across 26 states, we're looking for a detail-oriented Medical Receptionist to be the face of our clinic and the first step in our patient-first approach.
 
Why Your Insurance Verification Skills Matter Most
You're not just answering phones – you're our revenue protection specialist and patient financial counselor. As our front desk receptionist, your precision with insurance verification directly impacts both patient experience AND our clinic's financial health. We're specifically looking for someone who excels at resolving insurance and billing challenges while maintaining high patient satisfaction.
 
Let's be direct: We need someone exceptional at insurance verification and revenue recovery. Your ability to accurately verify coverage, explain costs clearly to patients, and ensure clean claims will be your most valuable contribution.
 
What You'll Actually Do
  • Master Insurance Verification: Meticulously verify coverage BEFORE services are provided, prevent claim denials, and maximize revenue capture
  • Excel at Financial Counseling: Confidently explain costs, billing processes, and insurance complexities to patients in a way they understand
  • Solve Billing Problems: Proactively identify and resolve insurance discrepancies and billing issues before they impact revenue
  • Drive Patient Satisfaction: Deliver exceptional service even during difficult financial conversations - keeping patients happy while handling payment matters
  • Be the Face of AFC: Greet patients with the warmth and professionalism that makes AFC stand out in healthcare
  • Own the Front Desk Flow: Process payments, schedule appointments, and manage patient check-ins with lightning efficiency
  • Protect Patient Information: Maintain organized records while strictly following HIPAA regulations
 
This Role is Perfect for You If:
  • You have experience with insurance verification and medical billing (non-negotiable!).
  • You can explain complex insurance concepts to frustrated patients with empathy and clarity.
  • You're obsessively detail-oriented – a single digit error in an insurance ID can cost thousands.
  • You've worked as a Medical Receptionist, Administrative Assistant, or in any Customer Service role in a medical office setting.
  • You're tech-savvy with medical billing software and EMR systems.
  • You have excellent problem-solving skills and can find billing solutions that work for both patients and the clinic.
  • You maintain a positive attitude even when dealing with challenging financial conversations.
 
What's In It For You:
  • Develop highly marketable skills in medical billing and insurance - some of the most in-demand talents in healthcare.
  • Receive specialized training in insurance verification and patient financial counseling.
  • Make a dual impact: help patients navigate healthcare costs while ensuring our clinic remains financially healthy.
  • Build transferable clerical and revenue cycle management skills that are valuable across the healthcare industry.
  • Be part of healthcare innovation that's expanding nationwide.
  • Clear Career Path: Grow with AFC into roles like Billing Specialist, Revenue Cycle Analyst, or Front Desk Supervisor — or move into clinic leadership and management as we continue expanding to 500 locations.
 
Perks & Benefits:
We take care of the people who take care of our patients. As a full-time team member, you’ll receive:
 
·      Medical, Dental & Vision Insurance (available after 30 days)
·      Mental Health & Prescription Coverage
·      Health Savings Account (HSA) with employer contributions
·      Short & Long-Term Disability Life Insurance
·      401(k) with Employer Match
·      Paid Time Off starting at 152 hours/year
·      Employee Assistance Program (free counseling sessions)
·      Uniform Allowance Verizon Discount More
 
We invest in your well-being so you can bring your best self to work—every shift, every patient.
 
The Details:
·      Location: Our state-of-the-art urgent care facility
·      Schedule: Full-time with flexible shifts (some evenings/weekends)
·      Requirements: High school diploma required; X-Ray Teah, Medical Assistant or related certification is a plus
