About The Position

As a Patient Engagement Specialist, you'll play a pivotal role in helping patients take the first step toward better lung health. You'll connect with referred patients, build trust, and clearly explain how Kivo Health's virtual pulmonary rehabilitation program works - guiding them toward enrollment with confidence and care. In this role, you will engage directly with patients to introduce Kivo's 9-week virtual pulmonary rehab program, walk them through the enrollment process, and speak knowledgeably about co-pays and potential costs.

The ideal candidate is a confident communicator who thrives on turning hesitation into interest and is genuinely motivated by helping patients improve their quality of life.

Success in this role is measured by your ability to engage patients and convert conversations into enrollment interest. Key performance metrics include outreach volume, the percentage of patients who express interest after an outreach call, and your effectiveness at communicating the value of Kivo Health's program while delivering an outstanding patient experience.
