career, Blackbird is the place to make an impact. Join us and help
change mental health care for children for the better! Position
Summary Blackbird Health's Care Navigators are an essential part of
our integrated and collaborative care team. This isn't just an
administrative role; once a new patient or family has begun care,
you serve as a constant source of support and operate as the
ultimate owner of their experience - answering questions, providing
education, ushering on to next steps, and ensuring each patient is
well cared for. What makes you, you: People-Focused: You have a
passion for providing high-quality, human-centered service, with a
knack for building rapport and ensuring others feel supported and
understood. A Natural Problem-Solver: You are proactive and
resourceful, able to anticipate needs and solve complex issues with
an eye towards improving processes and experiences for the future
Detail-Oriented: You have a meticulous approach to administrative
tasks from scheduling and documentation to tracking and managing
communications, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.
Tech-Savvy: You are proficient with technology and can quickly
learn new platforms like our EHR and scheduling tools. You're
comfortable navigating phone systems, text messaging, and email to
provide transparent and timely communication. Collaborative &
Independent: You thrive in a team environment- excited to pitch in
and support your peers- and can also work independently - doing the
right thing and operating with an ownership mindset. How you'll
make an impact: Deliver a Seamless Patient Experience: Be the main
point of contact for established patients, fielding inbound calls,
messages, and emails with exceptional responsiveness, empathy, and
professionalism. You'll answer questions, track down information,
and ensure families feel heard and supported with transparency and
follow-up. Navigate the Care Journey: Guide patients and families
through our care model, including scheduling and confirming
appointments (both initial evaluations and ongoing
therapy/medication checks). You'll manage a specific group of
providers, becoming familiar with their practices to ensure
patients are scheduled appropriately and receive timely access to
care. You'll also own the critical administrative tasks that make
care possible such as managing provider orders, screenings, and
scheduling. In-Office Support: As an in person teammate, you'll
help maintain a welcoming and professional in-office environment -
supporting patients and providers in person, managing mail,
restocking supplies, opening/closing the office, and generally
ensuring our physical spaces support a great experience. Uphold
Privacy & Compliance: You will be a guardian of patient privacy,
adhering to strict confidentiality and data protection standards,
including HIPAA regulations and complex family consent laws, to
ensure all sensitive information is handled securely and ethically.
