What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a Patient Access Specialist position where my skills and experience can continue to develop.

At Saratoga Hospital | Bariatrics, I serve as a liaison between providers and patients, handling patient registration, copays, insurance verification, and authorizations. I also manage work queues and use Epic and Excel in a busy office.

Previously, as Lead PAS at Saratoga Hospital RTC, I trained new employees across locations, scheduled appointments, and processed copayments. My earlier medical secretary experience included insurance pre-certifications and front-end revenue cycle work.
