Job description

Full-time Description

At the intersection of healthcare and human compassion is the role of the Patient Eligibility Coordinator - a position dedicated not just to process, but to purpose.

We are currently seeking a committed individual to serve as a Patient Eligibility Coordinator, working directly within one of our partner hospital facilities. This is more than an administrative role; it is a hands‑on opportunity to support patients at some of the most vulnerable moments in their lives. Many of the individuals you will meet are uninsured or underinsured, uncertain of how to access care, and overwhelmed by the complexities of our healthcare system. Your role will be to guide them with clarity, patience, and dignity through the process of obtaining coverage.

The Patient Eligibility Coordinator serves as a knowledgeable and trusted resource, helping patients understand their options and navigate enrollment in federal and state assistance programs such as Medicaid, Medicare, and ACA Marketplace plans. Each interaction you have can change the trajectory of someone’s health journey.

Success in this role requires more than administrative skill - it calls for a deep sense of empathy, a commitment to service, and a genuine interest in making healthcare accessible to all. As part of your day‑to‑day, you will collaborate closely with hospital teams, including Patient Access and Case Management departments, to ensure patients receive timely and coordinated care. You will also need to remain informed and adaptable, as the landscape of government healthcare programs continues to evolve.

Key Responsibilities

• Assist patients in understanding and applying for appropriate healthcare coverage programs
• Guide and support patients through the enrollment process for Medicaid, Medicare, and ACA Marketplace plans
• Educate patients on their options and eligibility based on program requirements
