This commitment is strengthened by the diverse expertise and shared values brought together through our growth.
Our dedicated providers offer a full spectrum of health care services, from routine wellness to complex disease management, all grounded in rigorous research and education. Our comprehensive network of 10 hospitals and nearly 300 care sites strategically located across the greater Puget Sound region reflects our ongoing commitment to accessibility and comprehensive care. We are proud of our pioneering medical advances and numerous awards and accreditations that reflect our dedication to excellence. When you join Virginia Mason Franciscan Health, you become part of a team that delivers top-quality, professional healthcare in modern, well-equipped facilities, and contributes to a legacy of service built on collaboration and shared purpose.
As a Patient Access Specialist, you manage administrative duties related to the patient intake process, adhering to established guidelines and procedures. You serve as a key point of contact for patients, ensuring efficient scheduling, accurate registration, and a seamless, high-quality patient experience.
Every day, you will interact with patients in person and by phone to support check-in and check-out processes, while scheduling, rescheduling, and canceling appointments in alignment with provider guidelines and availability. You will collect and update patient demographic and insurance information to ensure accurate registration and billing, verify insurance eligibility and benefits to reduce claim denials and reimbursement delays, and collect co-pays and applicable payments at the time of service. Additionally, you will process referrals and authorizations according to clinic and payer requirements and respond to patient inquiries with clear, professional communication.
To be successful, you will demonstrate strong critical thinking and problem-solving skills in a fast-paced environment while delivering exceptional, patient-centered customer service. You will maintain a working knowledge of insurance processes, billing practices, and medical terminology, and effectively navigate Epic systems, including scheduling and registration tools. Success also requires the ability to manage multiple tasks with a high level of accuracy and attention to detail, along with clear communication and effective collaboration with patients, providers, and care teams.
