Compassionate patient liaison with expertise in healthcare advocacy.

Italy

What I'm looking for

I seek a role that allows me to advocate for patients, improve healthcare access, and collaborate with multidisciplinary teams.

I am a compassionate and detail-oriented patient liaison with extensive experience supporting military patients and navigating complex insurance processes. My role at Aviano US Air Force Base allowed me to advocate for over 150 military patients monthly, ensuring they received the medical care and resources they needed. I take pride in educating patients about their rights and treatment options, acting as a vital link between patients, healthcare providers, and administrative staff.

Throughout my career, I have honed my skills in case management, insurance navigation, and EHR software, maintaining strict adherence to HIPAA regulations. My proficiency in medical translation and interpretation has enabled me to facilitate clear communication between English and Italian speakers, enhancing patient experiences in high-stress clinical settings. I am passionate about improving patient outcomes through effective advocacy, education, and exceptional customer service.
