• Manage clinician credentialing and re-credentialing with insurance payers, including CAQH profile upkeep and attestations.
• Coordinate with insurance platforms (such as Headway and Lyra) on enrollment, account issues and payer questions.
• Track credentialing status, expiration dates and license renewals across states.

Billing & Finance

• Make sure payments are entered and processed the same day.
• Manage communication with our external billing service.

• Help with bookkeeping and confirm that payments match the sessions billed.

HR & Multi-State Compliance

• Onboard new team members through Rippling and maintain accurate employee and contractor records.
• Support multi-state payroll and employer tax registrations as the practice adds clinicians in new states.

• Onboard new clinicians into practice systems and directories (SimplePractice, Zocdoc, Headway, CAQH, Slack and more).

Directories, Website & Marketing

• Maintain clinician profiles on Psychology Today and other directories.
• Keep the WRP website up to date with clinician bios, services and practice announcements.
• Send weekly patient surveys and monthly clinician feedback forms.
• Work with the team on strategies to improve the client experience and grow the practice.

Operations

• Support daily administrative work remotely, in collaboration with the General Manager and clinic directors.
• Make sure patient portals and scheduling platforms are used efficiently.
• Be on call during business hours and respond quickly to the team by phone, Slack or email.
• Be flexible with your schedule. Issues sometimes come up on evenings or weekends that need your attention.

Practice Growth & Strategic Support

• Work directly with the General Manager and Owner to carry out Wellness Road’s growth initiatives.
• Help plan and carry out operational improvements, hiring goals and client acquisition strategies.
• Help track KPIs, clinician productivity and patient feedback to guide decisions.
