We have a part-time Medical Front Office Coordinator opening in Grants Pass. We are looking for more than a receptionist. The ideal candidate is proactive, detail-oriented, learns quickly, and notices what needs attention without requiring constant direction. We want someone who can help us stay ahead of patient communication, referrals, documentation, scheduling, and other administrative needs while contributing experience and ideas that improve our overall workflow. We are looking for someone who will bring both excellent patient service and strong administrative follow-through to the practice and who takes pride in helping a small healthcare office operate efficiently.
Because this is a small practice, this person should be comfortable working independently and taking responsibility for seeing administrative tasks through to completion.
