The Opportunity
Ever had a phone call turn someone's whole day around? That's this job. Healthcare is confusing, and most people would rather ignore a benefits letter than call about it. You're the one who picks up the phone, cuts through the confusion, and gets someone unstuck — turning “I'll deal with it later” into “okay, I'm scheduled.”
In this role, outbound calling is the core of the job. You'll spend the majority of your day dialing, building rapport fast, handling objections, and guiding members toward scheduled care — all day, every day. If you get energy from the phone ringing, love the rhythm of a good dial list, and want to sharpen your sales instincts in a role that actually matters to people's health, this is built for you.
What You'll Do
This is a phone-first, sales-driven role. Expect a full day of outbound dialing, with the skills below woven into every call:
Spend the bulk of your day making outbound calls: working dial lists, building rapport fast, and moving members toward scheduling their care
Apply consultative sales techniques and confident objection-handling to turn hesitant or disengaged members into active participants in their own care
Educate members on their benefits and surgical pathways clearly enough that they're ready to say yes
Field inbound calls as needed, offering the same expert-level guidance on benefits and appointment scheduling
Own member cases from initiation through resolution, coordinating across providers, insurers, and internal teams
Keep meticulous, real-time documentation across all systems so nothing falls through the cracks
Partner directly with health plans to resolve benefits, claims, and billing questions on members' behalf
Handle escalated or sensitive situations with sound judgment and genuine empathy
Maintain strict HIPAA compliance and the highest standard of professionalism in every interaction
