We're Looking for the Right Person to Join Our Team!
Dental Scheduling Coordinator
Valley Dental Clinic | Wasilla, Alaska
Up to 40 Hours per Week | Monday-Friday | Hours Between 7:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m.
Valley Dental Clinic is a legacy practice with deep roots in the Wasilla community. We are a well-established, relationship-focused dental practice that has been providing excellent care to the Wasilla community since 1980. Most of our team members have been with the practice for over 5 years, and we are proud of the personal relationships we have built with generations of patients and families in our community.
We are looking for an experienced Dental Administrative Coordinator to become part of that team.
For us, the front office is much more than answering phones and scheduling appointments. It is where a patient's relationship with our practice begins. We want someone who remembers our patients, takes the time to listen, follows through when they need help, and understands how important it is for people to feel known and cared for when they walk through our doors.
At the same time, this is a critical administrative role. We need someone who is organized, dependable, comfortable taking initiative, and experienced enough to confidently manage the many moving pieces of a state of the art dental office.
What You'll Be Doing
You will be an important part of the patient's experience and the daily flow of the practice. Responsibilities include:
• Welcoming patients and assisting with check-in and checkout
• Answering phones and helping patients with questions and concerns
• Scheduling patients and helping maintain an efficient, productive schedule
• Verifying and understanding dental insurance benefits
• Assisting patients with insurance, billing, and financial questions
• Preparing and presenting treatment plans and discussing payment options
• Coordinating reminders, confirmations, and follow-up
• Monitoring collections, production, and other important practice numbers
• Maintaining compliance such as HIPAA requirements
• Working closely with the doctors and the rest of our team to keep each day running smoothly
The Person We Hope to Find
Dental experience matters to us. We are looking for someone with previous dental front office and insurance experience, preferably with Dentrix experience.
But who you are matters just as much.
We hope to find someone who is kind and comfortable with people. Someone who is reliable and follows through. Someone who notices what needs to be done and takes care of it. Someone who can handle a busy day without losing sight of the person standing in front of them. Someone who does not require micromanagement, ever.
Most importantly, we want someone who values being part of a close, long-term team and is looking for a practice where they can put down roots.
Schedule
This position offers up to 40 hours per week, scheduled Monday through Friday.
Working hours will fall between 7:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m.
The exact schedule can be discussed during the interview process.
What We Offer
• Dental benefits
• Paid holidays
• Paid Time Off (PTO)/Sick Pay
• 401(k) with employer match
• Christmas bonus
• A Christmas party that is truly fun
• A supportive, hardworking, close knit, drama-free team
• An established practice with deep roots in the Wasilla community
• The opportunity to build genuine, long-term relationships with our patients and team
Interested?
If you are an experienced dental administrative professional who misses the feeling of working somewhere personal, where patients are known by name and coworkers truly know and support one another, we would really like to meet you.
Please send your resume and a short introduction telling us a little about yourself and your dental experience to [email protected]
We look forward to hearing from you.
