Mariah Washington
@mariahwashington
I am a customer-focused pharmacy technician experienced in medication dispensing, insurance authorizations, and healthcare administration.
What I'm looking for
I am a registered pharmacy technician with formal training in pharmacy technology and HIPAA essentials. I bring hands-on experience from a pharmacy externship and a background in healthcare administration and retail management.
During my pharmacy externship I assisted customers with prescriptions, verified insurance and demographics, prepared labeling, and consistently met accuracy and productivity targets. I communicated with physician offices and alerted managers to errors to help maintain safe dispensing practices.
Outside the pharmacy, I have served as a receptionist and retail customer service manager, where I handled front‑desk duties, supervised staff, managed cash office processes, and coordinated with insurance companies to set up plans and process payments.
I am organized, detail-oriented, and committed to patient-centered service. I leverage HIPAA compliance, pharmaceutical knowledge, and strong communication skills to support teams and improve workflow while pursuing further certification and professional growth.
