Save to Favorites

Lakeland Volunteers in Medicine (LVIM) needs clerical assistant volunteers for their Prescription Assistance Program. Clerical assistants will create and complete applications for prescriptions per the guidelines established by the pharmaceutical company, fax or mail the applications, contact patients, monitor the application status and shipments. Additionally clerical assistants will create and update patient charts, verify eligibility, and process the information through 2 electronic health record systems.

A volunteer for this opportunity must have basic computer skills, accurate data entry skills, appropriate telephone etiquette, strong customer service and communication skills, and be detail oriented and organized. This opportunity does involve excessive sitting. LVIM is asking for a commitment of 6 months with a minimum of one shift per week either 8am-12pm or 12pm-4pm on any day Monday through Friday.

Lakeland Volunteers in Medicine clinics are community based and provide free healthcare services to uninsured and medically underserved communities. LVIM is led by a few Watson Clinic physicians and the Watson Clinic Foundation and functions primarily by volunteers to meet the healthcare challenges of Lakeland's community in a different way.
