📍 Role Logistics
Job Type: Contract
Role Type: Lead Conversion Specialist (Phone + SMS)
Ideal Experience Level: 2+ years of experience
Location: Fully Remote
Work Hours: 1:00 PM to 9:30 PM Central Time
🚀 The Opportunity
We’re hiring a Phone Operator / Lead Conversion Specialist to support new patient leads from the moment they reach out—primarily via phone calls and text messages—with the goal of getting them scheduled for a new patient appointment as quickly and smoothly as possible.
This role is perfect for someone who’s comfortable being on the phone throughout the day, enjoys helping people take the first step toward care, and can stay calm, organized, and empathetic while juggling multiple conversations. You’ll be the front line for inbound and outbound outreach—answering questions, helping leads book, rescheduling when needed, and handling common intake-related issues that come up before a first appointment.
We’re a fast-paced startup, so the right person is proactive, adaptable, and energized by improving processes as we scale. You’ll help reduce friction in the earliest stage of the patient journey and ensure every lead gets a clear path to care.
Important note on the “clinical” piece: This is a non-clinical role (you will not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment). You’ll focus on logistics, scheduling, and intake coordination, and you’ll route anything clinical to the appropriate team with clear documentation.
✅ Responsibilities and Deliverables
Answer inbound calls and texts from new patient leads with clear, accurate, and timely communication
Make outbound calls and send texts throughout the day to follow up with new leads and get them booked
Convert leads into scheduled appointments by guiding patients through the next steps, answering common questions, and reducing drop-off
Schedule and reschedule appointments, including managing missed appointments and helping patients get back on the calendar quickly
Triage intake-related issues that arise before the first visit (e.g., scheduling conflicts, basic onboarding questions, communication gaps) and escalate as needed
Provide compassionate, high-quality support with a strong focus on patient trust and satisfaction
Maintain clean, consistent documentation of patient interactions so nothing falls through the cracks
Track follow-ups and next steps to ensure each lead receives timely outreach and a clear outcome (booked, not a fit, no response, etc.)
Identify recurring lead objections or friction points and share feedback to improve scripts, workflows, and conversion rates
Work closely with internal teams to resolve issues quickly and keep the intake process moving
Maintain a reliable, high-speed internet connection for smooth and consistent communication
Always aim to deliver the best experience possible for our patients

2+ years in a customer support, patient support, front desk, intake, call center, or scheduling role
Experience in healthcare, telehealth, behavioral health, or a high-volume scheduling environment is strongly preferred
