THE ROLE
Your main goal as a Records Delivery Agent is to move every records request forward until complete records are in hand, then close that request as quickly as possible.
Each Delivery Agent owns a workload of open requests organized by provider, and uses phones, our client messaging system, and our provider database to clear roadblocks, keep information accurate, and keep clients informed at every step.
If you like solving problems, chasing down answers, and seeing a task through to the finish line, this role is for you.

- Communicate with providers about issues with a request, such as missing records, incomplete productions, delivery problems, or billing questions.
- Explain to providers that each request is a patient's request for their own records.
