Shelvin Makokha
@shelvinmakokha
Administrative professional delivering accurate records, billing support, and front-desk coordination.
What I'm looking for
I’m a detail-oriented administrative professional with over 2 years of experience across healthcare and business settings in Nairobi. I’m trusted for accuracy, discretion, and reliability while supporting day-to-day operations with minimal oversight.
In my current Receptionist role at Juja Road Hospital, I coordinate front-of-house activity for high visitor volumes, capture demographic and encounter data in the HIS, and support billing workflows. I also manage appointment calendars, validate insurance eligibility per visit, and administer Smart, Slade, and SHA insurance claims to help ensure timely payments.
Previously, I strengthened records accuracy and information flow as a Records and Information Officer, including digitising approximately 600 paper-based health records over three months. I focus on cross-verification, confidentiality, and efficient filing so teams can retrieve information quickly and make informed decisions.
