Keep customers informed throughout the resolution process by providing timely updates and setting clear expectations for next steps.

Respond to callers with empathy and respect, especially when they are sharing personal or challenging life events that affect their situation. Requirements - At least 1 year of experience in customer service, a healthcare office, call center, or another client-facing support environment.

Strong verbal communication skills with the ability to listen carefully, ask effective questions, and explain information clearly.

Basic computer proficiency and comfort using multiple systems while documenting interactions in real time.

Ability to manage both inbound and outbound calls in a courteous, efficient, and detail-focused manner.

Experience documenting case details accurately and maintaining organized records of follow-up activities.

Strong problem-solving skills, including the ability to research issues and determine the appropriate path to resolution.
