Kafayat Kafayat
@kafayatkafayat
I support healthcare teams with Epic/Cerner/Meditech expertise and HIPAA-compliant troubleshooting.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Customer Support and Health IT Specialist with 11+ years of remote, high-volume experience in healthcare settings. I resolve complex technical issues, support EMR/EHR workflows, and guide clinicians and front-desk teams with confidence during go-lives and post-implementation transitions.
In my roles, I’ve strengthened day-to-day operations through Epic, Cerner, and Meditech support—handling scheduling and registration, verifying insurance/authorizations, improving documentation workflows, and maintaining HIPAA-compliant record handling. I’ve also delivered training and at-the-elbow support, built user documentation/knowledge resources, and served as an escalation point for workflow errors and access concerns.
I’m especially effective when systems integration, troubleshooting, and adoption matter—whether it’s moving users from Denticon to Epic Wisdom, leading Cerner Millennium adoption, or coordinating issue resolution through ticketing tools like ServiceNow and Jira. I bring an empathetic, user-focused mindset to every interaction, aiming to improve efficiency, compliance, and satisfaction across diverse healthcare environments.
