We Need Someone Who Understands the Importance of Follow-Through!

A hospital sends a referral.

A physician's office hasn't provided all the required documentation.

A patient's insurance needs verification.

A discharge planner needs an update.

And the patient is waiting to receive care.

Can you stay organized, communicate effectively, and keep the process moving?

That's the kind of Intake Coordinator we're looking for.

Someone who doesn't just identify missing information but takes initiative to obtain it.

Someone who understands the importance of timely admissions.

Someone who knows how to work with multiple departments without allowing important details to fall through the cracks.

Because the sooner we get the intake process right, the sooner our patients can receive the care they deserve.

Important: This Position Is Based in Beltsville, Maryland

Although the Intake Coordinator may process referrals for patients receiving services in different areas, the employee's assigned office location is Beltsville, MD.

This position requires daily onsite attendance.

Monday–Friday | 8:30 AM–5:00 PM

Ready to Help Patients Take the First Step Toward Care?

If you have healthcare intake experience, enjoy staying organized, and understand the importance of accuracy and communication, we'd love to hear from you.

Bring your experience. Bring your attention to detail. Bring your commitment to getting things done.

Join Human Touch Home Health Care and help us make sure every patient referral receives the attention it deserves.
