Outpatient Behavioral Health Patient Registration & Facilities Clinic Supervisor

Role Summary

The organization is seeking a leader interested in building stability and continuity over time, with the opportunity to grow in scope and responsibility as the clinic and team mature.

The Outpatient Behavioral Health Patient Registration & Facilities Clinic Supervisor is an on-site operational leadership position responsible for front-end patient access operations, administrative staff supervision, and day-to-day facility coordination in a high-volume outpatient behavioral health clinic.

The role supports traditional outpatient services, Partial Hospitalization (PHP), Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP), and addiction services. While non-clinical, the position requires direct interaction with psychiatric patients and families, including individuals experiencing distress or crisis, and the ability to manage complaints, service recovery, and support de-escalation in collaboration with clinical staff.

The Supervisor serves as the primary on-site administrative and facilities leader, with direct management responsibility for a Senior Patient Registration Coordinator, multiple Patient Registration Coordinators, and multiple Medical Assistants. The role requires consistent floor presence to partner closely with the Senior PRC and works collaboratively with the Nurse Navigator (RN), Medical Director, Clinical Director, and Director of Operations (DOO) to align administrative workflows, provider schedules, MA coverage, and patient flow.

Core responsibilities include supervising and supporting a stable administrative team with clear accountability; managing scheduling, timekeeping, hiring, onboarding, training, performance management, and corrective action; and owning provider scheduling templates to ensure efficient access and clinic flow. The Supervisor also serves as the primary point of contact for facility and environment-of-care needs, coordinating vendors, supplies, and facilities partners to ensure clinic readiness. Administrative staff assist with facility needs as appropriate under the Supervisor’s direction.

This is a fast-paced, high-stress, requiring sound judgment, strong prioritization, and the ability to manage people, workflows, reporting/data, and physical space simultaneously.
