As one of the first members of the Ophelia team that a patient will interact with, our Care Coordinators are integral to creating a best-in-class patient experience that supports Ophelia's ability to grow and achieve our mission.

In this role, you will be responsible for following defined processes and protocols that ensure our patients receive consistent, high quality care. You will engage directly with Ophelia patients providing support across a wide range of areas including successfully filling pharmacy prescriptions, obtaining prior authorizations from a patient's health insurance plan, rescheduling an upcoming visit with a member of the Ophelia clinical team, collecting required documentation to allow members of Ophelia's clinical team to coordinate care with other health care providers the patient is seeing outside of Ophelia and providing quality referrals.
To be successful in this role you must become proficient in various technology platforms and channels of communication that Ophelia team members use to both provide support to our patients and to partner with cross-functional teams on improving processes and workflows. This role reports to the Lead Care Coordinator.
