Description

Position Summary

The Patient Advocate plays a dual role in supporting the patient journey across high-touch pathways (e.g., TMS, Creyos, HST, Evoke) and in managing referral pipelines and insurance navigation. This full-time, non–patient-facing position is based in the Central Business Office and acts as a key communication and coordination hub between patients, providers, and external partners.

Ideal candidates are empathetic, organized, proactive, and growth-oriented—with a passion for mental health, service excellence, and ongoing professional development.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage inbound and outbound communication with patients for TMS, HST, Creyos, and Evoke services
  • Proactively follow up on provider-generated or PPG (preferred provider group) referrals from the outreach team to educate patients, answer questions, and book consultations quickly, ensuring the outreach team’s relationship-building efforts lead to scheduled appointments.
  • Maintain open communication with the outreach team by updating them on referral progress, scheduling outcomes, or potential barriers, helping them strengthen trust and credibility with referring providers.
  • Educate patients on ancillary services and assist with consultation bookings and onboarding
  • Navigate insurance workflows including HMO referrals and authorizations by coordinating with PCPs and external clinics
  • Support lead lifecycle from referral through treatment initiation, partnering with NP Leads, Schedulers, and the Referral/VOB team
  • Maintain accurate documentation in Salesforce, Athena, and other internal systems
  • Meet call volume expectations (60–80/day) while ensuring high-quality engagement and lead qualification
  • Participate in marketing and community engagement efforts, including provider relationship development and lunch-and-learns
  • Collaborate with Care Navigator and Patient Advocate teams to ensure effective execution of orders and seamless patient care
  • Handle referral management from intake to provider scheduling, ensuring timely coordination and documentation
  • Communicate with referring providers and internal teams to gather necessary information and support patient care transitions
  • Conduct outbound calls to patients and providers to confirm referral details, provide updates, and facilitate next steps
  • Monitor and track the status of all referrals in Salesforce and follow up as needed to prevent delays in care

Required Skills & Attributes

  • Strong verbal and written communication, with active listening and probing skills
  • High empathy and professionalism when handling sensitive or complex cases
  • Organized, detail-oriented, and self-motivated with a proactive mindset
  • Customer-service and results-driven sales orientation
  • Comfortable with high-volume environments and CRM systems (Salesforce preferred)
  • Familiarity with TMS workflows, VOB logic, and insurance processes a plus
  • Team player with a coachable attitude and growth mindset

Education & Experience

  • College degree or equivalent experience required
  • 0–2 years of experience in sales, customer service, lead generation, or healthcare navigation

Work Environment & Physical Demands

  • Office-based role with frequent phone and computer use (up to 70–75% of the day)
  • May include occasional light lifting (up to 25 lbs) and travel within DFW for provider meetings
  • Close visual acuity needed for screen work and documentation tasks
