Headquartered in Chicago, R1® is a publicly traded organization with employees throughout the US and international locations.
Our mission is to be the one trusted partner to manage revenue, so providers and patients can focus on what matters most. Our priority is to always do what is best for our clients, patients, and each other. With our proven and scalable operating model, we complement a healthcare organization’s infrastructure, quickly driving sustainable improvements to net patient revenue and cash flows while reducing operating costs and enhancing the patient experience.
As our Customer Service Representative , you’ll work to help our patients check into the hospital. It’s fast - paced on occasion and you’ll be the person they rely on to answer questions during registration. You’ll build trust in these interactions by collecting information accurately and quickly but also by listening with compassion - not just to hear information, but to address their fears, concerns , and questions.
To thrive in this job, you’ll need to be a confident multi-tasker who is a quick study with technology and can type and answer phones. Y ou don’t need to have any previous experience or knowledge in healthcare. Since this is a hospital /lab environment , you will need to be prepared to see illness and injuries. We’ll teach you everything you need to know, which makes this a perfect starting point to launch your healthcare career. Y ou must also be up to date on all vaccinations (including annual flu shot), pass a drug test, and pass a background check prior to hire.
Here’s what you can expect working in Patient Registration (Customer Service) :
Working on computers and answering phones to intake information in a busy environment. You’ll work across multiple screens collecting details that must be input correctly between physician and nurse check-ins. You should feel comfortable working across multiple programs and typing as quickly as patients can talk . Y ou will work around clinicians interrupting the registration process for emergent clinical care.
Helping people who may be very ill or worried. We’re not human computers intaking information. Patients need you to be there for them and listen carefully to ease their anxiety. You’ll ask follow-up questions and build rapport in real time.
Fast-paced work environment, often on your feet assisting patients complete their registration. While collecting patient and insurance information may seem straightforward, there is a lot of variation in health plans and coverage, that will require knowledge through training . While the data you collect may be predictable, the people you’ll get it from aren’t. You must work quickly and expect the unexpected. This is not a casual desk job.
A team you can rely on. We care about your progress toward career goals. This is just the first step of your healthcare career at R1 RCM Inc.
