WORK HISTORY

Patient Business Associate: St. Luke's Regional Medical Center, Boise, ID,

Oct 2002 - Mar 2009

I was a member of the Patient Registration Services team. My main

responsibility involves interviewing patients and family members to obtain

and record accurate registration information in various computer

applications in outpatient registration, pre-registration, and the

emergency room. I am also directly involved with other patient business

associates, providing initial and continuing education. I provide

support to physicians and clinical staff, both within St. Luke's and at

other facilities, in various manners: preparing patient charts,

coordinating patient services, arranging transfers between medical

facilities, and working with the internal departments of St. Luke's to

provide outstanding patient care. I handle confidential information in

accordance with federal regulations (HIPPA) and provide front line customer

service for patients and families with a variety of developmental, socio-

economic, and cultural backgrounds. I work with various ages, genders,

cultures, and learning styles. I help reduce anxiety and stress to the

patients and family by demonstrating an attitude of acceptance, caring, and

sensitivity. I handle multiple phone lines, fax and copy doctors' orders

and send them to the appropriate location, and contact insurance companies

in order to obtain pre-certifications for patients' procedures.

Insurance Verifier: St. Luke's Regional Medical Center, Boise, ID, Oct

2002 - Jan 2007

In this position I was responsible for verification of eligibility and

benefits for inpatient and outpatient pre-certifications. Other

responsibilities included documentation and management of patient

information within various health information computer applications. I also

reviewed accounts for accuracy of insurance plans and information, reviewed

benefits to determine eligible coverage and need for additional funding,

and covered various areas of Patient Registration as a Patient Business

Associate as needed.
