  • Communicate with facility staff and internal departments regarding client coverage and clinical needs.
  • Serve as a client advocate, ensuring access to appropriate care through effective payer communication.
  • Ensure timely documentation of all authorizations, decisions, and payer communications.
  • Perform other related duties as assigned.

  • Ability to work independently and as part of a collaborative team.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office and Google Workspace.
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment with deadlines and competing priorities.
Education & Experience
  • High school diploma or equivalent required. Associate’s degree or higher preferred.
  • At least 1 year of experience in behavioral health or utilization review preferred (not required).
  • Prior experience in the substance use and/or mental health treatment field is highly valued.
