What I'm looking for
As an experienced office manager and insurance verification specialist, I have honed my skills in managing patient records, scheduling appointments, and ensuring compliance with healthcare regulations. My current role at Comfort Dental has allowed me to streamline insurance verification processes, ensuring that all necessary pre-authorizations are completed ahead of appointments. I pride myself on my attention to detail and my ability to assist front desk operations, enhancing the overall patient experience.
Previously, I served as an office manager at Murray Family Dentistry, where I created efficient routing sheets for treatment and processed insurance claims with precision. My ability to manage multiple responsibilities, from generating reports to overseeing front desk operations, has been instrumental in maintaining a smooth workflow. I am passionate about improving office efficiency and ensuring patient satisfaction through effective communication and management.
