What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role where I can leverage my financial counseling skills to enhance patient care and streamline healthcare processes.

As a Financial Counselor at Austin Regional Clinic, I specialize in assisting patients with their insurance plans and benefit details. My role involves confirming insurance coverage, obtaining prior authorizations, and providing Good Faith Estimates for uninsured patients. I work closely with the medical coding team and physicians to ensure accurate billing and coding, which has significantly improved patient satisfaction and streamlined our billing processes.

Previously, I served as a Residential Instructor at the Texas School for the Blind and Visually Impaired, where I maintained a supportive and structured environment for students. My experience as a cashier at HEB Grocery honed my customer service skills, allowing me to respond to customer needs efficiently and courteously. I am passionate about helping others and ensuring they receive the best possible care and support.
