Description Exalt Health, an acute rehabilitation hospital, provides an intensive rehabilitation program, and admitted patients must be able to tolerate three hours of intense rehabilitation services per day. Focused on caring for patients with complex rehabilitative needs such as stroke, spinal cord injury, brain injury, head trauma, medically debilitation conditions, neurological disorders, cardio-pulmonary amputations, orthopedic injuries, and multiple major traumas. Position Summary The PAS Intake Coordinator is an entry-level role focused on efficiently and accurately completing the Pre-Admission Screening (PAS) tool. This role is designed to accelerate the admission workflow by handling the clerical assembly of patient files. The Coordinator will gather data from hospital systems and field staff to ensure all administrative fields in the PAS are finalized, enabling the clinical team to provide final approval more quickly. This position is ideal for individuals with strong organizational skills, those with teaching backgrounds, or individuals with administrative certifications. Key Responsibilities - Data Entry & Transcription: Accurately input patient demographics, history, and referral details into the PAS documentation system. - Workflow Acceleration: Prioritize incoming referrals to ensure "real-time" document completion, directly supporting the speed of the Hospital Liaison team. - Administrative Quality Control: Audit files for missing signatures, incomplete contact information, or missing insurance details prior to clinical review. - Technology Integration: Utilize AI-assisted tools (such as Microsoft Copilot) to summarize data points, draft communications, and organize high volumes of referral information. - Collaboration: Work closely with the Corporate Director of Patient Analytics to ensure data entry aligns with corporate tracking standards. Requirements Qualifications - Education: High School Diploma or GED (Minimum Requirement). - Preferred Backgrounds: Teaching Certifications are highly desirable due to the transferable skills in documentation, organization, and information synthesis. - Certifications: Medical Billing or Coding certificates are a significant plus. - Experience: Prior experience in healthcare is not required; we will train candidates who demonstrate close attention to detail and strong computer literacy. - Technical Skills: * Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel). - Training or experience with Microsoft Copilot (or comparable Generative AI software) is a plus. - Ability to learn and navigate Electronic Medical Record (EMR) software quickly.

Frequent "drop-outs" or inconsistent connectivity that hinders EMR access or communication will impact performance metrics. - Home Office Environment: Must maintain a professional, quiet work environment suitable for video conferencing and focused data entry. Communication & Responsiveness - Continuous Availability: Candidates are expected to be fully present and engaged during their designated shift. - The "One-Hour" Rule: To ensure Hospital Liaisons are never stalled in the field, coordinators must respond to inquiries via Phone, Email, and Microsoft Teams Chat within one hour of receipt. - Mandatory Daily Stand-Ups: Participation in a daily "Stand-Up" meeting via Microsoft Teams is required to review the referral queue, discuss roadblocks, and align on daily volume priorities.
