Scheduler - Woodbury Surgery Center

Schedule all outpatient surgeries and procedures as requested by physicians or office staff, capturing complete clinical, demographic, and insurance information into the billing system. Obtain patient demographics, verify benefits with payers, and secure necessary authorizations. Coordinate with the Director of Nursing to ensure equipment, staff, and ancillary services are available, while preparing and distributing the daily schedule to Nursing Managers, RNs, Pre-Op, and PACU personnel. Communicate same-day add-on cases, potential conflicts, and patient problems to appropriate leadership, and monitor block time and cancellations. Cross-train to cover front desk duties, medical records, chart preparation, collections, and patient account advocacy as directed by the Business Office Manager.
