At LUX Infusion, we're reimagining infusion care to be more human, supportive, and connected. Inspired by lux -meaning light - we guide patients, providers, and partners through complex therapies with clarity, compassion, and confidence.

As a clinician-led, U.S.-based organization, we put people first - helping patients feel seen and supported through faster therapy starts, dedicated care coordination, and meaningful collaboration. Our commitment to inclusion, diversity, equity, and advancement (IDEA) is central to our culture, ensuring every team member feels valued and empowered to make a difference.

Schedule: Monday-Friday, 8:00 AM-4:30 PM CST

Location: On‑site - Berkeley, CA- Remote opportunity
(Hybrid eligibility may be considered after six (6) months of evaluation and performance)

We're looking for a Budget Collections Specialist who wants their work to mean something - someone who brings accountability, precision, and purpose to reimbursement follow‑up and payer resolution.

Why This Role Matters

Timely reimbursement is essential to sustaining patient care. The Collections Specialist plays a critical role in ensuring claims are resolved efficiently and payer balances are managed responsibly - helping patients stay on therapy and supporting a financially sound care model.

In this role, you'll contribute to work that:

• Helps patients avoid delays or interruptions in infusion care
• Supports accurate reimbursement across all therapy types
• Strengthens collaboration between billing, pharmacy, and operations teams
• Ensures compliance with payer, legal, and regulatory requirements
• Advances a patient‑first, clinician‑led organization focused on outcomes
• Behind every successful infusion is a revenue‑cycle process that works - and this role helps protect it.

What You'll Do

In this role, you will:

• Follow up on submitted insurance claims to ensure correct and timely payment
• Monitor and manage assigned payer accounts to minimize delinquent balances
• Investigate denials, underpayments, and unpaid balances, determining appropriate resolution paths
• Work directly with payers to correct issues and secure reimbursement
• Distinguish between claims billed correctly versus those requiring correction or rebilling
• Maintain a strong understanding of payer contracts, reimbursement methodologies, and coverage requirements
• Collaborate with internal billing, pharmacy, and operations teams to resolve claim issues efficiently
• Respond professionally and promptly to customer and internal inquiries related to claim status
• Stay current on billing regulations, coding guidelines, and payer policy updates
• Utilize clearinghouses and billing systems to support effective collections workflows
• Assist with data entry, reporting, and administrative tasks as needed
• Maintain accuracy, follow‑through, and professionalism in all payer interactions

What We're Looking For

You may be a great fit if you bring:

• Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills
• Persistence and confidence when working payer follow‑ups
• A customer‑service mindset balanced with financial accountability
• Comfort working in a fast‑paced, metrics‑driven environment
• Clear written and verbal communication skills
• Attention to detail and ownership of outcomes

Required Qualifications

• High school diploma or GED
• Minimum of three (3) years of experience in collections‑related activities
• Experience providing customer service to internal and external stakeholders
• Basic proficiency with Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint)

Preferred Qualifications

• Five (5) or more years of collections experience
• Prior home infusion therapy billing or collections experience

You don't need to check every box - we care just as much about how you approach problem‑solving and accountability as your background.

Why LUX Infusion

Here, you’ll find:

• Purpose‑driven work that directly supports patient access to care
• A patient‑first, clinician‑led culture

• Clear expectations with opportunities for growth
• A potential hybrid work model as trust and performance are established

Come help ensure reimbursement supports continuity of care - and see what's possible when care comes first.
