Medical Assistant - Remote Primary Care Coordinator

The Opportunity:

The Patient Care Coordinator at Pine Park Health is the operational and relational backbone of our geriatric primary care team. This is a fully remote role — you can work from home while making a real, daily difference in the lives of older adults across California, Nevada, and Arizona. You will own care coordination for our geriatric patients — managing real-time communications, triaging urgent clinical needs, maintaining documentation integrity, and serving as the trusted point of contact for patients, families, facility staff, and providers. This is not a passive coordination role. You will be the first line of response — following clear protocols to triage, escalate, and close the loop without delay. The seniors we serve are medically complex, often frightened, and counting on someone who shows up fully — every shift, every call, every task.

What you'll do:

• Serve as the primary point of contact for patients, families, facility partners, and providers across your assigned patient panel
• Triage and prioritize urgent care requests, STAT tasks, and time-sensitive clinical communications in real time
• Maintain accurate, compliant patient documentation within our EMR system
• Proactively manage appointment scheduling, follow-up care, and interdisciplinary communication
• Lead new patient onboarding, ensuring each patient is contacted and scheduled within 24 hours of enrollment
• Participate in after-hours on-call rotation to support continuity of care
• Contribute to quality improvement initiatives and operational efficiency projects
  
  

This role is a strong fit if you:

• Thrive in high-volume, fast-moving environments where your organization directly affects patient outcomes
• Take ownership of your work without needing close oversight
• Want meaningful daily work with a vulnerable population and can feel the weight of that responsibility without being paralyzed by it
• Take pride in documentation accuracy and communication follow-through even when no one is watching

You'll thrive here if you:

• Find satisfaction in bringing order to complexity
• Care deeply about doing right by people who are vulnerable and counting on you
• Take ownership of your work without needing close oversight
• Want remote work that actually feels meaningful

Qualifications:

• 2+ years of direct patient care experience in a clinical setting (Medical Assistant, LVN/LPN, CNA, Phlebotomist, Patient Care Technician, or similar)
• Bachelor's degree strongly preferred
• Experience in healthcare coordination, patient services, or clinical operations
• Strong triage and prioritization skills in high-volume, real-time environments
• Proficiency with EMR/EHR systems and healthcare technology platforms
• Exceptional communication skills across diverse stakeholders — patients, families, physicians, and facility leadership
• Self-directed and accountable; able to work independently in a fully remote setting
• Reliable high-speed internet and a dedicated, private, HIPAA-compliant home workspace
• Must maintain good standing with OIG, CMS, and Federal Health Care Programs — no exclusions or debarments

Benefits Tailored for You and Your Family:

• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance for you and your dependents
• Flexible spending accounts for health and dependent care
• 401(k) retirement plan
• Generous PTO and Sick Leave
• 8 weeks paid parental leave
• Monthly wellness allowance
• Monthly cell phone stipend
• Annual professional and personal development allowance
