Full Job Description

McKinley Orthopedic & Sports Medicine is seeking a highly organized, detail-oriented, and patient-focused Surgical Coordinator to join our Spine/Orthopedic team.

The Surgical Coordinator plays a critical role in guiding patients through the surgical process—from the decision to proceed with surgery through scheduling and pre-operative preparation. This position works closely with our surgeons, clinical staff, and surgery centers and patients to ensure every surgical case is coordinated accurately and efficiently.

We are looking for someone who communicates well, thrives in a fast-paced medical environment, and takes pride in creating an organized and supportive experience for patients preparing for surgery.

Key Responsibilities

Coordinate and schedule orthopedic and spine surgical procedures with hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers.
Serve as a primary point of contact for patients throughout the surgical scheduling and pre-operative process.
Provide patients with clear instructions regarding surgery dates, arrival information, required testing, medical clearances, appointments, and other pre-operative requirements.
Coordinate surgical dates and case details with surgeons, clinical teams, operating facilities, and other involved parties.
Obtain insurance authorizations and verify surgical benefits and coverage requirements.
Track authorization status and follow up with insurance carriers to help prevent delays or cancellations.
Ensure required clinical documentation, imaging, testing, clearances, and other records are completed and available before surgery.
Coordinate pre-operative and post-operative appointments.
Maintain accurate surgical schedules and communicate schedule changes promptly to patients, providers, and facilities.
Review surgical documentation for completeness and accuracy.
Communicate professionally and compassionately with patients who may be experiencing pain, anxiety, or uncertainty regarding surgery.
Work closely with physicians, medical assistants, front-office staff, billing personnel, hospitals, surgery centers, and outside medical offices.
Document patient communication, authorization information, and scheduling activity accurately in the electronic medical record.
Identify potential scheduling or authorization issues early and work proactively to resolve them.
Protect patient confidentiality and follow HIPAA and practice policies.
Perform other administrative and patient-care coordination duties as assigned.

Qualifications

Required:

Excellent organizational skills and strong attention to detail.
Strong written and verbal communication skills.
Ability to manage multiple patients, deadlines, authorizations, and surgical cases simultaneously.
Professional and compassionate approach to patient communication.
Strong computer skills and ability to learn electronic medical record and scheduling systems.
Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively with physicians and other members of the healthcare team.
Dependable, accountable, and comfortable working in a fast-paced clinical environment.

Preferred:

Previous experience in orthopedic, spine, surgical, or specialty medical practice.
Previous surgical scheduling or surgery coordination experience.
Knowledge of medical terminology.
Familiarity with CPT and ICD-10 codes.
Experience working with hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers.
Experience with electronic medical record systems.

What Success Looks Like in This Role

A successful Surgical Coordinator is someone who stays several steps ahead. You keep surgical cases organized, communicate clearly with patients and the care team, follow through on outstanding requirements, and recognize potential problems before they affect a patient's surgery.

You understand that surgery can be stressful for patients and families. You combine efficiency and attention to detail with patience, professionalism, and excellent customer service.

Ideal Candidate

You may be a great fit if you are:

Exceptionally organized and detail-oriented.
Comfortable managing a high volume of moving pieces.
Proactive rather than waiting for problems to arise.
Confident communicating with physicians, patients, insurance companies, and surgical facilities.
Able to prioritize effectively when schedules or circumstances change.
Patient and compassionate when working with individuals navigating surgery.
Someone who takes ownership of tasks and follows them through to completion.
A strong team player who values accuracy, communication, and excellent patient care.
