• Pre-Appointment Prep: Provide comprehensive pre-visit instructions over the phone to ensure re-engaged patients understand arrival times, sliding fee scale documentation requirements, and necessary clinical pre-requisites.
• CRISP & Notification Follow-Up: Receive daily lists of recent hospital admissions and emergency department discharges generated via CRISP (Health Information Exchange) panel alerts and conduct rapid phone outreach, in coordination with the nursing team, to establish timely follow-up appointments.
• EHR Documentation: Log all patient interactions, refusal reasons, disconnected numbers, and successful bookings within the center's electronic health record software to maintain data integrity.
• Internal Cross-Functional Hand-offs: Coordinate smooth hand-offs to Population Health Nurses for complex clinical cases or to on-site Community Health Workers (CHWs) for patients requiring immediate in-clinic social determinant interventions.
