About The Position
This freelance, remote role supports a healthcare technology and services company focused on advancing clinical research in specialty medicine. The specialist will help clear a backlog of patient charts by reviewing records against study-specific clinical-trial eligibility criteria, documenting findings, and flagging missing, conflicting, or unclear information for the team. Accurate, consistent chart reviews help keep trials moving and provide feedback to refine prescreening procedures. The work involves reviewing patient charts in an EHR system, examining clinical notes, medical histories, prior procedures, and related records, and applying established checklists and standard operating procedures. The specialist records outcomes and exclusion reasons in a tracking spreadsheet, maintains accuracy while meeting agreed daily targets, and escalates cases that need clarification. Patient information must be handled confidentially and in accordance with approved data-access and security procedures. This is a remote position requiring a reliable internet connection and a quiet, dedicated workspace. The worker provides their own computer and other required work-from-home equipment. The schedule is 40 hours per week, Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Compensation is $7 per hour, and no benefits package is included.
