Patient Financial Advocate & Customer Experience Specialist – Remote Healthcare Revenue Cycle

Join arenaflex: Where Compassion Meets Purpose in Healthcare Revenue Cycle Management

Are you a customer service professional who thrives at the intersection of empathy, problem-solving, and meaningful work? arenaflex is seeking a dedicated and compassionate Patient Financial Advocate & Customer Experience Specialist to join our dynamic healthcare revenue cycle management team. This is more than a customer service job — it is an opportunity to make a tangible difference in the lives of patients navigating the often complex world of medical billing, insurance, and healthcare finances.

At arenaflex, we believe that every patient deserves clarity, dignity, and support when managing their medical expenses. Our team partners with healthcare providers across the country to ensure that patients understand their financial obligations, access repayment programs, and feel empowered throughout their healthcare journey. If you are passionate about helping others, excel in a remote call center environment, and want to build a long-term career in the rapidly growing healthcare revenue cycle industry, this role is designed for you.

Why This Opportunity at arenaflex Stands Out

Choosing your next career move is about more than just a paycheck — it is about finding a place where your work has purpose, your growth is supported, and your contributions are valued. Here is what makes this role at arenaflex exceptional:

• Clear Path for Career Advancement: arenaflex believes in promoting from within and investing in our team members. Whether you aspire to become a team lead, a subject matter expert in medical billing, a quality assurance specialist, or a client services manager, we provide the mentorship, training, and opportunities to help you climb the ladder.
• Remote Work Flexibility: Based on performance and eligibility, this position offers the ability to work from the comfort of your home. To support our clients effectively, remote candidates must reside in Wisconsin, Michigan, or Iowa. We provide the tools, technology, and training you need to succeed in a virtual environment.
• Supportive, Collaborative Culture: When you join arenaflex, you become part of a team that genuinely cares about one another. We foster a collaborative environment where knowledge sharing, peer mentorship, and open communication are the norm — not the exception.
• Meaningful, Mission-Driven Work: Every call you take is a chance to help a patient better understand their financial situation, find a repayment plan that works for their budget, and reduce the stress that often accompanies medical debt. Your work directly improves patients' financial well-being and overall peace of mind.
• Skill Development in a Growing Industry: Healthcare revenue cycle management is one of the fastest-growing sectors in the United States. By joining arenaflex, you will develop specialized, transferable skills in medical billing, insurance coding, patient advocacy, and customer experience that will serve you throughout your career.

What You Will Do: Key Responsibilities

As a Patient Financial Advocate & Customer Experience Specialist at arenaflex, you will serve as a critical point of contact for patients seeking guidance on their medical bills and financial responsibilities. Your day-to-day responsibilities will include, but are not limited to:

• Patient Outreach and Inbound Support: Place and receive phone calls to and from patients in a professional, compassionate, and patient-centered manner. You will gather payment for medical expenses, set up payment arrangements, and ensure that patients feel heard and respected throughout every interaction.
• Accurate Information Collection: Collect and verify demographic, insurance, and other relevant information from patients, documenting all details accurately and securely in our internal technology platforms. Attention to detail is essential, as the information you gather supports the entire revenue cycle process.
• Patient Education and Advocacy: Educate patients on the healthcare revenue cycle, including how insurance claims, deductibles, copays, and balances work. You will guide patients through available repayment programs, financial assistance options, and other resources designed to enhance their financial well-being.
• Issue Resolution and Research: Investigate and resolve patient questions, concerns, and disputes using web-based tools, payer portals, and internal platforms. You will become adept at navigating multiple systems to find answers and provide timely, accurate resolutions.
• Continuous Learning and Process Mastery: Maintain and continuously expand your knowledge of the processes, procedures, payer requirements, and client-specific workflows of arenaflex's healthcare partners. Our industry evolves constantly, and we need team members who are committed to staying current.
• Documentation and Compliance: Accurately document all patient interactions in compliance with HIPAA regulations, company policies, and client expectations. Maintaining thorough records is critical to ensuring continuity of care and financial clarity for every patient.

What You Bring: Essential Qualifications

• Customer Service Experience: A minimum of one year of experience in a customer-facing role, demonstrating strong communication skills, empathy, and the ability to handle challenging conversations with professionalism.
• Call Center Experience: At least one year of experience working in a call center environment, whether inbound, outbound, or a blend of both. You should be comfortable using headsets, navigating multiple screens, and managing call metrics.
• Medical Billing and Coding Knowledge: A minimum of one year of hands-on experience with medical or insurance coding and billing. Familiarity with CPT codes, ICD-10, insurance terminology, and payer processes will set you up for success from day one.
• Residency Requirement: For remote positions, candidates must reside in Wisconsin, Michigan, or Iowa. This residency requirement is tied to client and operational needs, and we are unable to make exceptions for candidates outside these states.

How to Stand Out: Preferred Qualifications

While not required, the following experiences will help you shine as a candidate and accelerate your ramp-up at arenaflex:

• Experience with healthcare revenue cycle platforms, electronic health records (EHR) systems, or patient engagement software.
• Bilingual or multilingual capabilities, particularly in Spanish, which can be a significant asset in serving diverse patient populations.
• Prior experience working remotely and demonstrating the self-discipline, time management, and communication skills required for success in a virtual environment.
• Familiarity with financial assistance programs, charity care applications, or patient financing options.

Skills and Competencies for Success
