What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a healthcare operations or patient-coordination role where I can train teams, manage high volumes, and improve referral flow, scheduling, and patient experience through clear processes and strong communication.

I’m a customer-oriented coordinator who leads high-performance teams to meet or exceed objectives. I’m dedicated to delivering excellence and I bring a strong track record of training, team development, and practical process execution.

In my current Referral/Care Coordinator role, I analyze patient medical records to obtain supporting documentation for urology diagnoses and finalize referrals based on scheduling guidelines. I work at high volume (about 400 referrals per day), train multiple Referral Coordinators using training materials, and coordinate with the office’s Engagement Committee to strengthen teamwork and morale.

Previously, I handled Live Answer responsibilities by answering inbound calls, scheduling appointments for clinicians, and managing patient requests such as prescription refills, labs, test results, and incoming referrals—also training new hires. I’ve also supported Patient Access as a Hospital Registrar and On-Call Manager, focusing on accurate registration, point-of-service medical collections, guidance for new registrars, and safety response during urgent situations; earlier experience includes training-focused consulting, QA testing practice (manual and automation non-functional testing), and communication/event coordination that drove a 15% sales increase over three years.
