As A Patient Access Specialist (PAS), I believe we are an integral part of the Medical office. We

are often the first person a patient may interact with over the phone or upon arriving at the

office. Therefore, the PAS is important to shaping the patients first impression of the medical

practice, which could shape the patient/provider relationship in the long-term. Even during the

most busy, hectic times, the PAS MUST maintain composure, and a friendly and positive

attitude.

Goals and Experience

To work as a Patient Access Specialist (PAS) Medical Assistant in a professional Medical office

greeting patients, answering telephones, fielding and triaging calls to proper departments,

scheduling appointments, patient registration and demographics, verifying health insurance

benefits and collecting copays, ordering additional testing and referrals as needed and all

general office duties. I have experience and knowledge of Medent, Medicon, Practice Manager

and EyeMed. Ability to multitask, excellent communication skills, outgoing and positive

personality with outstanding work ethics. I am punctual and reliable. I enjoy working with

people. Have a friendly personality with a positive attitude, and am a team player.

Salary and Expectations:

● $39,500 (No Health, Vision or Dental Required)

● Paid Vacation, Personal and Sick Leave

● 401k with company match (Optional/if available)
