• Shield confidential details at all times and confirm compliance with privacy regulations that guard against any unauthorized release
• Prepare and organize new patient charts from paper or electronic sources, verify standard order and completeness, and create digital images for the electronic medical record
• Retrieve and transmit records to fulfill both internal and external requests, answer inbound and outbound calls, aid walk-in visitors, and handle supporting tasks such as faxes, mail, and data entry
• Keep current on company and facility software, report volume shifts or site issues to leadership, meet site-specific productivity targets, schedule pick-ups when required, follow all codes of conduct, and perform other assigned duties

What You Bring

• High school diploma or GED
• Ability to commute between sites as needed and to work overtime during peak seasons
• Basic computer skills plus comfort with phones, fax machines, printers, and standard office equipment
• Professional verbal and written English communication, strong data-entry accuracy, and a detail-oriented focus on compliant medical-record content
• Capacity to organize multiple tasks, work with minimal supervision, adapt to shifting priorities, and perform effectively in a fast-paced setting

Preferred experience includes a healthcare background, prior production or metric-driven work, in-person customer service, relationship-building with on-site clients, and a willingness to suggest process improvements.
