Patient Care Operations and Enrollment Coordinator - BridgeHealthAI

About Us

BridgeHealthAI partners with Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) and community organizations to ensure every patient gets the care and benefits they deserve—without drowning care teams in paperwork.

Our platform supercharges care coordination by automating high-friction tasks such as outreach, insurance verification, eligibility checks, follow-ups, and referrals. With modern AI + cloud infrastructure, we turn hours of manual effort into seconds, helping teams close care gaps faster, protect revenue streams, and stay focused on patients.

Born out of Harvard and MIT and backed by Pear VC, Flare Capital, and Glen Tullman, BridgeHealthAI is a fast-growing, seed-stage company trusted by leading clinics. We are purpose-built for the safety net, helping clinics scale access, reduce burnout, and deliver equitable care for the 30M+ patients served by FQHCs each year.

Our mission is simple:
Eradicate health disparities by empowering the teams who care for underserved families.

The Role

We are seeking a part-time Patient Care Operations Coordinator to help us execute high-volume patient support and benefits navigation across Massachusetts.

*This is a contract, part-time role for 3 months; however, there will be an opportunity to extend beyond 3 months.

You must be able to enroll patients in benefits programs (e.g., MassHealth, Medicaid, ConnectorCare), whether as a CHW, Navigator, CAC, Patient Access Specialist, or equivalent role with enrollment experience.

You will use our internal tools to:

• Filter and organize patient lists

• Conduct outreach

• Track outcomes

• Surface cases needing escalation

You’ll communicate with patients in English and in Spanish when needed, verify benefit eligibility, confirm resource availability, and document outcomes. You will play a critical role in helping us scale — taking on work that is currently handled by our core team.

Training & Support:
You will receive structured onboarding and workflow training, including guidance on our outreach processes, call/message templates, and how to use BridgeHealthAI tools. You will have regular check-ins and a defined point of contact for questions and escalation.

Patient Population:
The patients you’ll support are primarily served by FQHCs, typically lower-income, often insured through Medicaid/MassHealth or uninsured, and speak multiple languages (Spanish commonly). Many face barriers navigating healthcare and benefits systems, so empathy and clear communication are essential.

What You’ll Do

• Conduct high-volume outreach (phone, SMS, email) to patients + community organizations

• Assist patients in Spanish when needed

• Enroll and assist patients with MassHealth, Medicaid, and ConnectorCare applications/renewals

• Identify eligibility for programs such as SNAP, WIC, LIHEAP, RAFT, EITC, etc.

• Use our tooling to work structured patient task queues efficiently

• Verify insurance coverage + help patients understand next steps

• Connect patients to community programs and social services

• Confirm availability/logistics for the clinical and social services they need

• Accurately document interactions and outcomes in our system

• Flag urgent + complex cases for escalation

• Provide workflow + product feedback to help improve tools
