- Client communication & treatment follow-up: Conduct regular check-ins with clients on their medical treatment progress, answer general case status questions, and help prevent gaps in care.
- Records & bills collection: Request, track, and retrieve medical records and billing statements from providers via portals and direct phone calls; log all documentation accurately in the CRM.
- Insurance & case file management: Communicate with insurance adjusters regarding claim setup, PIP/MedPay, liability, and property damage. Maintain up-to-date case notes, deadlines, and treatment timelines, and flag files that are ready for demand to the attorney.
