Outreach and Enrollment Specialist

Job Overview

Why Crescent Community Health Center? Crescent is a mission driven and patient centered organization. We provide medical, dental and brain health services to the Greater Dubuque area including our most vulnerable populations. We work hard to bring high quality affordable health care to all in our community. We believe we provide a diverse, fun, and inclusive workforce with competitive wages and benefits. If you are looking for a rewarding career that makes a difference in the community, this is your chance. We seek someone who wants to make that difference in our outreach and enrollment office as an O&E Specialist.

So, what will you do? The Outreach and Enrollment (OE) Specialist gathers information for patients who are potentially eligible for products in the Affordable Care Act marketplace and community resources. You would organize group informational sessions, or conduct individual consultations, to assist patients in applying for health insurance benefits. You'll assess whether uninsured patients are eligible for other insurance options such as Medicaid, CHIP, or other available state and federal programs.

The successful candidate must possess at least a bachelor's degree in social work, psychology, sociology, communications, business or a science discipline. If you have 4 years' experience in a related field or a combination of education and experience, we will consider that as well.

We'd prefer you to have some experience in working with vulnerable or high-risk individuals. Other preferences include those who have prior experience with understanding government regulations and presenting to individuals or groups. And, since we use Electronic Medical Records, if you have experience in that, you'd be ahead of your competitors.

This is a full-time, 40-hour per week position. There may be evening and weekend work as well.

Pre-employment drug testing, physical, review of required immunizations and background check required.
