At LCMC Health, we believe you are more than your job. Everyone is. It is the little extras you bring to work every day—the things that make you you—that make you great. We value these unique qualities because they add up to extraordinary outcomes.

The Patient Access Associate serves as the first point of contact, greeting patients and guests in a courteous manner while initiating the scheduling or check-in process. You will obtain and verify accurate identification and demographic data to ensure the integrity of the patient's permanent medical record, which is critical for accurate reimbursement and maintaining confidentiality. Your interactions will span face-to-face point-of-service encounters, telephone calls, web-enabled platforms, and interpretative services to complete the patient registration and admission process.
You will interact with patients, doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and other clinic and hospital personnel, consistently representing LCMC Health professionally to improve patient satisfaction. This position requires cross-training to support multiple functions across all patient and payer types. You will demonstrate actions consistent with LCMC Health's "Expectations" in your daily duties.

- Deliver healthcare with heart and put a little love in your work.
- Give people a reason to smile and be honest and real, but with compassion.
- Bring some "lagniappe" (a little something extra) into everything you do.
