Registration Specialist
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail.
We need to remove duplicated lines, cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc.
Let's extract content:
About the role: "Performs a variety of administrative and clerical duties to manage patient registration and patient financial obligation." Could be a prose
.
Responsibilities: The CORE JOB DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES paragraph includes many statements. We need to turn each bullet into
- . The paragraph starts: "The statements described here are intended to describe the general nature of work being performed by people assigned to this position. They are not intended to be constructed as an all-inclusive list of all responsibilities and duties. Other duties may be assigned." That's boilerplate; we can maybe keep as prose? But it's generic; maybe we should omit that sentence as it's not specific duty. The instructions: remove duplicated lines, boilerplate. That sentence is boilerplate; we can drop it. Then list duties:
- Obtains demographic/billing/insurance information from patient/family/legal guardian and enters into the registration/billing systems for service and claim processing and scans insurance cards & photo identification.
- Provides to the patient, information concerning insurance, payment of bills and hospital procedures.
- May complete managed care responsibilities in regard to obtaining pre-certification and authorizations.
- Prepares WVU Medicine standard consent form, notice of privacy practice and/or other necessary paperwork related to registration and presents to patient/family/legal guardian for signatures.
- Obtains electronic signature for consent to treat and patient financial obligations.
- Collects deposits/co-payments/deductibles/patient liability payments when applicable, provides patient receipt and documents payment in the registration/billing systems.
- Prepares armband for patient identification.
- Balances daily receipts and cash drawer for patient payments as needed.
- Follows up on accounts as indicated by system flags (courtesy dismissal/comments/red stickers).
- May initiate various screenings and obtains all pertinent information for coverage and completes appropriate paperwork.
- Performs medical necessity checks and completes Advanced Beneficiary Notice as needed.
- Schedules, reschedules, or cancels patients in accordance with hospital workflows.
- Checks for order completeness and validate order against scheduled service.
We need to keep all.
Requirements: Minimum Qualifications: "EDUCATION, CERTIFICATION, AND/OR LICENSURE: High school graduate or equivalent. State criminal background check and Federal (if applicable), as required for regulated areas."
We could treat as Requirements section. Could also be Qualifications. The instruction: Use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide what to put where. Usually Requirements = minimum qualifications; Qualifications = maybe preferred? But we only have minimum qualifications. We could put them under Requirements. Or we could split: Requirements = education/background check; Qualifications = maybe none. Better to put under Requirements.
Skills And Abilities: list.
We need to turn each ability into
- . The paragraph: "Skills And Abilities Ability to accurately utilize applicable computer software and equipment for access processing & demonstrates ability to follow down time procedures. Demonstrate knowledge of procedure to report and/or document unsafe/hazardous conditions, incidents and defective equipment in compliance with hospital policy. Requires considerable attention to detail, the ability to be organized and to be able to perform multiple tasks simultaneously. Requires the ability to memorize a considerable amount of information, and to be able to reference information not retained from written sources or from appropriate personnel. Requires the ability to understand medical insurance requirements for payment and basic knowledge of covered services. Excellent written and verbal communication skills and the ability to understand written and verbal communication. Basic knowledge of medical terminology."
We need to split into separate items. Could be each sentence as
- . Let's break:
- Ability to accurately utilize applicable computer software and equipment for access processing & demonstrates ability to follow down time procedures.
- Demonstrate knowledge of procedure to report and/or document unsafe/hazardous conditions, incidents and defective equipment in compliance with hospital policy.
- Requires considerable attention to detail, the ability to be organized and to be able to perform multiple tasks simultaneously.
- Requires the ability to memorize a considerable amount of information, and to be able to reference information not retained from written sources or from appropriate personnel.
- Requires the ability to understand medical insurance requirements for payment and basic knowledge of covered services.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills and the ability to understand written and verbal communication.
- Basic knowledge of medical terminology.
Schedule: "Scheduled Weekly Hours: 24 Exempt/Non-Exempt Shift: United States of America (Non-Exempt) Company SYSTEM West Virginia University Health System Cost Center 545 RMH Patient Access Address 1 Medical Park Drive Wheeling West Virginia"
We need to extract schedule info: Scheduled Weekly Hours: 24; Exempt/Non-Exempt Shift: United States of America (Non-Exempt). The rest is company info, address maybe not needed for schedule. Could include as prose
under Schedule section.
We should not include company name, address maybe not needed but it's substantive? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep the company and address? But those are not under any heading; they are part of Additional Job Description. Could we put them under a generic section? There's no heading for Company/Address. We could include them under About the role? But that might be misrepresenting. Better to create a section like "Details" but not allowed headings list only those specific headings. We cannot create other headings. So we must either drop that info or incorporate into existing sections if appropriate. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." It doesn't forbid adding extra info under existing sections if relevant. The company and address could be considered part of About the role? Not really. But we could put them under About the role as additional prose. However About the role currently is a short sentence; we could expand with company and address. That would preserve info.
Alternatively, we could drop it as not under any allowed heading. But the instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; we cannot drop it unless it's boilerplate. Company name and address is substantive. So we need to include it somewhere. Since we cannot create a new heading, we must append to an existing section. Which section is most appropriate? Maybe "About the role" could include location and company. Or "Schedule" could include shift and hours; but company and address not schedule. Could add to "About the role". Let's do that.
Thus About the role section:
Performs a variety of administrative and clerical duties to manage patient registration and patient financial obligation. Employer: West Virginia University Health System. Location: 1 Medical Park Drive, Wheeling, West Virginia.
But we need to keep exact phrasing: "Company SYSTEM West Virginia University Health System Cost Center 545 RMH Patient Access Address 1 Medical Park Drive Wheeling West Virginia". We could parse: Company: West Virginia University Health System; Cost Center 545 RMH Patient Access; Address: 1 Medical Park Drive Wheeling West Virginia. We'll keep that.
We'll also keep Scheduled Weekly Hours: 24 and Exempt/Non-Exempt Shift: United States of America (Non-Exempt). We'll put under Schedule.
Now we need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like "Equal Opportunity Employer" etc.
