About The Position

The Customer Service Representative (CSR) role provides 24 hour a day support to many of our pharmacy and ambulatory infusion suite locations across the country. The CSR triages urgent clinical calls from patients, caregivers and referral sources to the appropriate on-call clinicians and pharmacy staff to ensure an exceptional level of care and service outcomes with efficiency. Additional follow-up calls may be necessary until the caller’s need is resolved. Calls are documented thoroughly and accurately in the electronic medical record to capture the reason for the call and the escalation path followed to assist the caller. We believe every caller is to be provided with consistent, high quality care during every interaction. Additionally, the CSR provides support for the data-entry and management of new referrals for several locations to ensure timely responses to referral sources and efficient communication to the local Patient Registration teams. This is a work-from-home (remote) position.
