Job Summary and Responsibilities

This position supports patients with CommonSpirit Health providers by managing prescription requests with no refills remaining by authorizing a renewal based on organization‑approved standing orders or protocol. Prescription “refill” requests submitted by a patient’s pharmacy or requested by the patient to the prescribing provider are received, approved or otherwise triaged, significantly reducing the amount of time enrolled providers spend managing refill requests. The process also improves patient adherence to documented care plans, standardizes the criteria used for renewal authorizations and provides a consistent turn‑around time for refill requests.

Responsibilities May Include

Based on organization‑approved standing orders or protocol, process prescription renewal requests received from pharmacies, EHR and patients. Appropriately notifies the prescribing provider of any protocol criteria that are not met after reviewing the requested medication.
Update patients of the status of their refill requests.
Answers, screens, and processes a high volume of incoming calls in a professional manner.
Utilizes and adheres to a phone script, clinical decision trees and following department guidelines.

Escalates any unresolved or "out of scope" matters to a supervisor or subject matter expert along with appropriate information so that the matter is able to be effectively resolved.
Meets the requirements of the applicable Prescription Renewal Policies and Procedures.
This position is work from home within California.
