Dental Office Front Desk Coordinator

Dental Front Desk Coordinator

We are a single doctor, locally owned general practice located in Lakewood Ranch. Our focus is on a patient’s overall oral health and wellness.

Although it is not our core focus, we do work with special needs patients both in-office and in a surgery center setting.

We are currently looking for an experienced front desk coordinator to join our team. Responsibilities of the front desk coordinator will include (but is not limited to) answering phones, scheduling patients, discussing treatment plans and payment options, maintaining a variety of practice management metrics, and effectively managing the patient flow from check-in through check-out and collection of payments. We are primarily fee for service but are beginning to accept a limited number of insurance plans as a preferred provider so a solid understanding of the insurance process is important.

Skills and Experience we are looking for includes…

· Dental Office front desk experience (2+ years ideally)

· Curve Dental Software experience (highly desired but not required!)

· Experience with the entire dental insurance life cycle from setup, predetermination, filing and dispute as needed

· Familiarity with dental ICD-10 codes, especially as they relate to insurance

· Great interpersonal skills both with patients in the office as well as over the phone and via electronic communications (e-mail and text)

· Strong team player who will jump in and help in other areas of the practice when needed. Chairside and/or experience in sterilization would be fantastic. Someone who is not afraid to learn new skills.

This position is typically Monday – Thursday from 8:00 – 4:15 or about 32-33 hours per week. We are closed on Friday except for emergency services when needed. We do not currently offer any health insurance, however dental services for yourself and immediate family are offered at significantly discounted rates.
