About the role:

We're looking for a full-time Claims Associate to join our high-growth Claims team.

What you will do:

• Evaluate claims to determine whether they qualify for reimbursement
• Deliver exceptional service to our members via phone, chat, and email, offering education and guidance to help them navigate the Garner claims process
• Follow documented best practices for handling claims and communicating with members; suggesting process improvements as you identify them
• Manage and organize workload using Garner's platform and tools, including Zendesk and G Suite
• Achieve pre-defined goals for efficiency, responsiveness, and quality
• Triage and escalate complex and urgent member situations
• Retain detail-oriented working knowledge of Garner processes and healthcare billing practices
• Relay member feedback to leadership teams to improve Garner's solution
  
  

What you will bring to the team:

• A passion for helping people solve their problems with an ability to think creatively and empathetically
• Experience working in a customer-facing or operations environment with demonstrated experience staying calm under pressure
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• A high level of detail- and process-orientation, digital organization, and resourcefulness
• A desire to work in a rapidly evolving startup environment; comfortable with some ambiguity
• A desire to be a part of our mission to improve the healthcare system
• A quiet and distraction-free work environment with a reliable internet connection (ability to hard wire if needed strongly preferred)
• A bachelor's degree is preferred but not required
