In This Role, You’ll:

  • Contact patients prior to or following services to discuss financial responsibility and collect payments.
  • Establish and monitor patient payment plans; assist with billing questions and clarify EOBs or statements.
  • Document all financial communications and transactions in the appropriate systems.
  • Review patient eligibility, estimate financial responsibility, and collect payments up front when appropriate.
  • Proactively help reduce bad debt through timely patient outreach.
  • Support Revenue Cycle Management by assisting with insurance eligibility verification, prior authorizations, claim status, payment posting, and special projects.
  • Consistently deliver compassionate customer service to patients, referral sources, and internal teams.
  • Maintain strict confidentiality and HIPAA compliance at all times.

You’re a Great Fit If You:

  • Have a high school diploma or equivalent (required).
  • Bring at least 2 years of experience in healthcare revenue cycle or a medical office setting.
  • Understand U.S. medical insurance terminology — including Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial insurers.
  • Demonstrate excellent customer service skills and professional phone etiquette.
  • Communicate clearly and empathetically, translating complex financial or insurance topics into patient-friendly language.
  • Are highly organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable managing multiple priorities.
  • Are proficient with Microsoft Office and, ideally, EMRs/practice management systems.
  • Embrace and promote NIVA Health’s Core Values in every interaction.

Bonus Points If You:

  • Have 3+ years of experience in patient financial services or medical billing.
  • Are experienced in collecting patient balances in a clinic, hospital, or specialty care environment.
  • Have worked with wound care or similar healthcare specialties (not required).
  • Have experience using payment processing and revenue cycle systems.

  • Compliance with regulatory and organizational standards.
