About the Role

- Collaborate with providers to monitor the health of a panel of patients and determine if they are up-to-date on preventive measures.
- Participate in the daily operations of a primary care practice, such as answering incoming phone calls, responding to emails, assisting with front desk inquiries, and ensuring the general upkeep of the clinical space.
- Assist in providing patient education on chronic disease management and coach patients using an action-planning model based on motivational interviewing techniques.
- Provide anticipatory preventive guidance to families with children by establishing healing relationships with members and families.
