Customer Experience Representative

About the Role We're looking for a Customer Experience Representative who's passionate about helping people and solving problems, with hands-on experience in physical therapy insurance verification and authorizations. In this role, you'll be the primary point of contact for our patients — ensuring every interaction is handled with professionalism, empathy, and efficiency, while also managing the insurance and authorization details that keep care on track. You'll play a key part in shaping how patients experience our company, from initial insurance verification through active treatment. What You'll Do

• First contact with scheduling patients and ensuring a positive experience

• Following up with PTs regarding reschedules, documentation or communication between patient and PT

• Verify physical therapy insurance benefits, including visit limits, co-pays, deductibles, and plan-specific coverage rules

• Respond to patient inquiries via phone, email, and/or chat regarding insurance coverage, billing questions, and scheduling

• Resolve patient issues and complaints efficiently, aiming for first-contact resolution

• Accurately document all patient interactions, tickets, and resolutions in internal systems

• Identify patterns in patient feedback or recurring issues and escalate to leadership

• Collaborate with scheduling, revenue cycle management (RCM), and clinical teams to prevent care disruptions

• Maintain a strong understanding of company services, payer policies, and procedures to provide accurate information

• Meet or exceed individual performance metrics (response time, resolution time)

What We're Looking For

Required

• 3+ years of experience working within a physical therapy company or outpatient rehab setting

• Direct experience verifying physical therapy-specific insurance benefits (visit limits, PT/OT/ST caps, co-insurance, deductibles)

• Experience managing insurance authorizations, including tracking and renewing approvals

• Strong customer service background, with the ability to communicate clearly and empathetically with patients

• Excellent attention to detail and ability to manage multiple patient cases/tickets simultaneously

• Strong written communication skills for accurate documentation and ticket notes

• Comfortable working with customer support/ticketing software

Preferred

• Experience using Zendesk or a similar customer support/ticketing platform

• Familiarity with Medicare and commercial payer requirements related to PT documentation and clinical holds

• Experience working cross-functionally with scheduling, billing/RCM, or clinical teams

• Bilingual candidates encouraged to apply

What Success Looks Like

• Accurate, timely insurance verification that prevents downstream billing and scheduling issues

• Authorizations tracked and renewed proactively, avoiding care disruptions

• High customer satisfaction and strong first-contact resolution rate

• Clean, complete documentation across all tickets and patient communication logs

• Positive, proactive collaboration with cross-functional teams

Requires 3+ years in physical therapy or outpatient rehabilitation, insurance verification and authorization experience, strong customer service and communication skills, attention to detail, and ticketing software proficiency.
