About FamilyWell

FamilyWell Health delivers behavioral health care to women across the reproductive lifecycle. We operate a Collaborative Care Model in partnership with OB/GYN and primary care practices and enterprise health clients, making mental health support available where patients already receive care.

About the Role

As a Practice Associate, you provide the administrative backbone that keeps the enterprise referral pipeline moving. You support the Enrollment Specialist by keeping records synced across EHR systems, catching and resolving no-shows and late cancels before they become lost patients, processing related charges, and serving as the first voice patients and partners hear when they call FamilyWell.

It is a detail-heavy, high-volume role: part data entry and EHR administration, part patient outreach, part billing support, part reception. You are the reason patients don't fall through the cracks between appointments.

What You'll Do

Keep records in sync across EHRs

Create appointments and paste clinical and administrative notes between EHR systems (e.g., Healthie and the partner's EHR) so both records stay current

Document changes accurately and promptly following each appointment, cancellation, or reschedule

Monitor and resolve no-shows and late cancellations

Run reports to identify no-shows and late cancellations across the caseload

Text and call patients to reschedule missed or cancelled appointments

Notify the referring provider when a patient is lost to follow-up

Process charges for no-show and late-cancel appointments per policy

Support scheduling and coordination

Text patients directly to schedule and confirm appointments

Support handoffs after the intake and between therapy, psychiatry, and collaborative care as patient needs change

Work directly with providers to resolve scheduling conflicts and follow-up gaps

Communicate relevant patient status back to the referring clinician, including after no-shows, cancellations, or changes in care plan

Follow the escalation pathway for clinical concerns promptly and through the right channel

Serve as the front door to FamilyWell

Answer the FamilyWell phone line as receptionist, routing calls and taking messages appropriately

Represent FamilyWell professionally and warmly with every patient and partner interaction

Why This Role Matters

Patients get lost between appointments, not between referrals. This role catches the gaps — the missed visit, the note that didn't make it to the other system, the call that goes unanswered — so that no patient falls out of care because of an administrative step that didn't happen.

FamilyWell Health is an equal opportunity employer. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds and are committed to building a team that reflects the patients we serve.
