As a Volunteer at JFK Medical Center's Billing office since May 2012, I help them to check Medicaid eligibility for patient records and pull EOB's. It is also a valuable experience to learn about the working atmosphere in the healthcare system, accounts receivable activities and a good exposure to Mckesson products. As a regular activity when I am at JFK, I use HCS interactant, Horizon Patient Folder and the NJMMIS website. I enjoy the networking environment that JFK offers with my peers.
