Certified Pharmacy Technician - Patient Support Advocate

Help Patients Access the Medications They Need—When They Need Them Most

Are you a Pharmacy Technician who is passionate about patient care, medication access, and making a meaningful difference in patients' lives? Join our team as a Patient Support Advocate, where you'll serve as a trusted resource for patients, providers, insurance companies, and financial assistance programs to help remove barriers to treatment and improve medication adherence.

As a Patient Support Advocate, you will:

✅ Communicate directly with insurance companies to facilitate medication approvals and prior authorizations.

✅ Navigate pharmacy operating systems to enter data, adjudicate test claims, and develop follow-up action plans.

✅ Document patient concerns, prior authorization status, and financial assistance needs across multiple databases, electronic medical records (EMRs), and email platforms.

✅ Collaborate with physicians' offices to ensure patients receive optimal care and access to prescribed therapies.

✅ Maintain complete and accurate records of all patient communications and case activity.

✅ Assist patients with pharmacy insurance claims and medication access challenges.

✅ Partner closely with pharmacists and pharmacy liaisons to deliver an integrated, high-quality patient care experience.

✅ Provide compassionate phone support to patients, helping them manage refills, medication adherence, and pharmacy-related questions.

✅ Research and investigate information to support informed decision-making and patient outcomes.

✅ Manage, organize, and update data using various database applications.

✅ Identify operational opportunities, recommend improvements, and support enhanced productivity, quality, and customer service standards.

✅ Analyze trends, resolve issues, implement solutions, and contribute to continuous process improvement initiatives.

✅ Serve as a value-added business partner to stakeholders throughout the organization.

✅ Protect confidential patient and organizational information in accordance with company policies.

✅ Stay current with industry trends and best practices through continuing education, professional publications, networking, and professional organizations.

✅ Perform other duties as assigned.
