The employee is responsible for maintaining a private, secure home work environment with reliable high-speed internet suitable for handling protected health information. This role routinely uses standard office computer equipment such as computers, laptops, and printers. Occasional travel to practice locations or company meetings may be required. The physical demands described here represent those that an employee must meet to perform the essential functions of this job successfully. Most of the time will be spent on the computer. Must be able to sit for long periods of time. This is a full-time, exempt, fully remote position. Core business hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Central Time. Flexibility in hours is required, as coordination with the Lead Regional Financial Coordinators in other time zones and the offshore contracted workforce may require availability outside of core hours. This position directly manages two Lead Regional Financial Coordinators and, through those Leads, is accountable for patient financial operations across all regions and states. The position is additionally accountable for the quality, productivity, and compliance of the third-party offshore contracted workforce performing Regional Financial Coordinator functions. Offshore personnel are sourced, employed, and compensated by the third-party vendor; this role's authority over that workforce is limited to resource selection and removal from the BOND account and performance management under the vendor agreement, and does not extend to employment decisions. This position is classified as Salaried/Exempt under the executive exemption: it manages a recognized subdivision of the Revenue Cycle Management department, customarily directs the work of two or more full-time employees, and its recommendations on hiring, advancement, and termination are given particular weight. The administrative exemption provides an independent basis, given the role's exercise of discretion and independent judgment over patient financial policy, approval authority, and vendor resource selection. Because this position is fully remote, exempt classification, minimum salary threshold, overtime rules, paid leave entitlements, and pay transparency obligations are governed by the law of the state in which the employee resides and performs work. Several states in which BOND operates apply a stricter exemption duties test and a higher minimum exempt salary threshold than federal law. Exempt status and compensation must be confirmed against the requirements of the selected candidate's work state before an offer is extended, and reconfirmed if the employee relocates. The Employee shall maintain the confidentiality of all protected health information (PHI) whether electronic, written or oral to which he/she may be exposed either during the course of their duties or the result of an incidental disclosure. In accordance with the minimum necessary standard, the employee may only access PHI to perform the job. o View, create, add, and modify clinical and demographic protected health information as needed to perform patient financial operations functions. o Disclose clinical and/or demographic protected health information for the purpose of patient treatment, healthcare operations and/or payment for services. o Disclose all protected health information for any authorized purpose. o The minimum necessary standard must be applied in all matters and shall continue privacy protection during non-working hours and after employment is no longer with the company. The ideal candidate is a patient financial services leader who can hold collection performance and patient experience in balance. They bring proven experience leading team leads rather than individual contributors, holding an offshore contracted workforce accountable to defined performance standards, and owning self-pay collections and patient accounts receivable across a multi-site organization. They are comfortable setting policy, defining approval authority, and using data to drive consistent execution across a distributed team. Please note this job description is not designed to cover or contain a comprehensive listing of activities, duties or responsibilities that are required of the employee for this job. Duties, responsibilities, and activities may change at any time with or without notice. Bond and its affiliates provide equal employment opportunities (EEO) to all employees and applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability or genetics.
