• Start Date:  within next few weeks 
• Schedule:  Days
• Shift:  Monday-Friday with Manager on Duty (MOD) scheduled weekend rotation

You’re not just your job title.  Your role here extends far beyond your job description.  You are a friend and family member to each resident.  You know their name and their story.  You are providing compassion and companionship to those in our care.  This family aspect is what sets us apart from other health care sectors. 

When someone becomes a patient here, each of us becomes their partner on their journey to healthy living. No matter the illness, injury or limitation.

A little more about our center:

Community Care Center is a large inner-city skilled nursing (medical) facility.  We have multiple levels of care, including geriatric long term care and a large behavioral health (psych) population.   

• The average age of our patients is mid-40s
• Along with our medical/skilled patients, the most common diagnoses of the rest of our population is schizophrenia, bi-polar and major depressive disorders.
• The Staff and patients are welcoming and say hello as you walk through the hallways.
• We are located near W 43 ST & State Street, just off 90/94 and a few blocks from the train station.

What you will do in this role:   When you are a patient, finances should be the last thing on your mind.  You will work closely with facility and regional accounts receivables team.  The AR projects will include back-end collections and billing for Public Aide, Medicaid, Medicare and managed care accounts for our skilled nursing facility.  One moment you are managing the patient trust fund, the next you’re setting up payment schedules for a family and the next you could be helping a patient apply for Medicaid.  It’s a busy day here!

• Officially we title this job a BOM or Business Office Manager, but in other centers it may be called a Medicare / Medicaid Biller or Accounts Receivable Coordinator or even a Financial Services Rep.
• This is NOT a remote position.  Because we need you to regularly interface with residents and staff, 100% of your time will be working from/within the center.

• Our patients are loud, happy and eager to say hello to you as you pass by.
• You will immediately feel like a part of a team.
• Flexible scheduling
• Employee recognition program
• Annual merit increase opportunities
• Robust benefits package, including a retirement savings plan
