• Process medication refill requests in accordance with physician protocols and coordinate prescription-related communications.
• Assist physicians with documentation review, order management, and other administrative workflows that support efficient patient care delivery.
• Respond to patient inquiries regarding treatment plans, post-operative instructions, medications, imaging results, and follow-up recommendations under physician direction.
• Maintain accurate, complete, and timely documentation within the electronic medical record (EMR).
