A primary, behavioral, and social care provider, Accompany Health walks alongside patients for their entire care journey, offering at-home and virtual care, as well as 24/7 support. Partnering with innovative payors, Accompany Health is powered by remarkable care teams, elegant technology, and a commitment to evidence-based practice.

We build long-term relationships with our patients so they know, without question, that our team is here for them day or night, year after year. We focus on the health outcomes most important to our patients to make it clear that they lead the way.

To achieve our mission, we collaborate with community-based organizations, local providers, and health plans. Led by our empathetic care teams, guided by proven care models, and powered by our own technology, we deliver a level of service that our communities rightfully deserve but rarely receive.

While our headquarters is in Bethesda, MD, our teams are distributed across the country. If you’re eager to make a tangible difference in people’s lives, to help correct long-standing disparities in health care, join us.

About the role:

As a Patient Support Representative (PSR), you will be the first point of contact for patients, providing exceptional service, accurate call routing, and timely resolution of patient needs. You will play a key role in ensuring every patient feels heard, supported, and connected to care.

*This role is a contract position, with an end date of 4/01/2027*

Answer inbound patient calls promptly, following established workflows to resolve questions or route to the correct department.

Accurately document all calls, messages, and follow-ups in the EMR and other systems.

Make outbound calls as assigned for scheduling, patient follow-up, and targeted call campaigns.

Maintain patient confidentiality in compliance with HIPAA and internal privacy standards.

Meet or exceed established performance metrics, including handle rate, routing accuracy, and SLA adherence.

Collaborate with clinical and administrative teams to ensure smooth patient transitions and handoffs.

Perform other duties as assigned to support patient care and departmental goals.

This role reports to the Lead Patient Support Representative / Manager of Patient Support and Retention.

You are excited to work in a startup environment, with the ambiguity and shifting priorities that might come with it at times.

You are passionate about our mission to improve the lives and healthcare outcomes of marginalized communities.

You communicate with warmth and professionalism over text and phone, and you can de-escalate frustrated patients.

You’re systems-savvy (navigating our EMR+CRM at the same time) and follow workflows while knowing when to escalate.

You’re metrics-minded and coachable—SLA/KPI targets guide your day, and you welcome QA feedback.

You bring a mission-first mindset and protect patient privacy (HIPAA).

Flexibility for coverage windows (e.g., occasional evenings/weekends) is a plus; bilingual Spanish/English is a plus.

At least 2 years of experience in a customer service function within a healthcare setting
