Hospital Administration Jobs

An administrative medical secretary is generally responsible for answering telephones, directing calls, transcribing dictation for medical reports, arranging travel for physicians, taking messages, organizing medical charts, and any other administrative duties a medical facility needs.

The front desk receptionist at a hospital is primarily responsible for greeting visitors, directing calls and assisting visitors with directions, guidance or patient information.

Medical transcriptionists are responsible for transcribing audio that was recorded by a medical professional during a patient consultation, discharge summary, or patient history. Medical Transcriptionist jobs require a strong understanding of “medical jargon” and abbreviations so you can spot any errors made by the physician during documentation.

Patient services representatives are generally the first person a patient interacts with in a healthcare facility. This is sometimes also considered a receptionist. They are responsible for checking a patient in, collecting relevant insurance information, scheduling appointments, and more. It can be a hectic job for larger and busier healthcare facilities that handle a heavy patient load.

A patient account representative works closely with insurance claims, payments, and any issues that might arise with a patient’s account at a healthcare facility. Whenever a patient has a question about a bill or payment, they will generally speak with a patient account representative to resolve their issue. As a patient account representative you will also have to track down patients for payments if they have lapsed on a bill.
