Your mom could totally hire you as the office business manager. You would be responsible for the maintenance of the office, ordering supplies, scheduling the employees (if there are different scheduled), supervise the receptionist, keeping the books (potentially), doing the insurance work, etc.

Appreciation for the daily devotion to God and including it in your videos. You don't see many (if any) content creators follow Christianity. Props to both of your parents being so supportive of you and caring so much for you and AJ to live a comfortable life. I wish more parents would be this way.

I worked as a medical receptionist for years. It is a busy job! We had a blurb on the bottom of our insurance form saying if insurance doesn't cover the full cost then they are responsible. I would make sure they understood their insurance coverage and that it was a courtesy for us to check but it's always a good idea for the patient to double check and know their coverage. Sometimes we aren't given accurate information either. I would have them sign those forms and keep them on file. That way your mom isn't working for free when insurance doesn't pay. :)

Hey, I work as a medical receptionist in a Neurology Office. Insurance can be tough to learn, but it takes patience to learn all the information.

I work as a medical receptionist in ENT specialist office :) its quite difficult at first but as months pass by it gets easier. There are time I would cry for a good 20 minutes if I have to deal with many difficult situations but at the end of the day I feel accomplished and happy !

Thank you for shedding light on how crazy navigating health insurance in the US is! It’s honestly so sad! Would love more videos about your mom’s private practice and behind the scenes of all the roles you play to help support her practice!

[martiserrano]

Your mom is GORGEOUS!! I'm so proud of you for helping out, you are such an incredible inspiration ❤️

Hi there! I’m a Medical admin for a neurosurgeon in Canada, so I don’t have to bill medical insurance for them, however I have dealt with medical insurance when I worked at a physiotherapy clinic. It’s not nearly as bad the US but I can only imagine. It was nice to finally see a day in the life video with my actual career! And it’s great to see a YouTube with a real life job!
All the best Rach!

I am so happy I found your channel. I am a medical receptionist for a mental health facility. I love my job. Coming from Social Work, this new career choice is amazing!

Having a support system, like parents is such a blessing.

May God continue to bless you in all that you do.

I went to school for medical office systems and have worked for a dental office as well as a vision clinic now. It’s so much fun! I love dealing with insurance weirdly enough!

Your insurance rant. Spot on. I'm a speech therapist (haven't officially started my job but have learned in my internships) and insurance is ridiculous. It determines the amount of time therapists can see patients. You bill differently depending on what you do in the appointment. On a personal note, I'm switching from my dad's insurance this year. I haven't even looked at my benefits package yet and I'm already intimidated 🙃

Loved learning more ab medical receptionists it’s awesome how your parents are in such different industries and you can explore both 💖

Once I saw the devotional part I hit subscribed. I work with my husband in our Automotive business and came across your videos as I was researching Medical Receptionist jobs. ☺️

[techqueenrizing]

I love that you start your day with devotionals <3 Such, an essential part of any daily routine and you truly inspire me to do better thank you for that as well as sharing this video!

[kaycierenee]

I clicked on this video so fast 🤗 girl I completely get it when it comes to insurance!! I’m a benefits coordinator for a dental office so insurance & patients treatment plans/fees is what I do all day everyday.. and it’s completely crazy. I feel your pain! Loved this video 💖

In my country, Algeria🇩🇿🇩🇿, it's not easy to become a medical assistant. You must pass the baccalaureate exam and get a good marks . Then they choose you according to the order of the grade, whether you can enter the paramedical institute or not, in addition to a three-year training at the institute and a hospital . At the end of your studies, you will prepare your dissertation then you will get your job

[brookemoloney]

Totally understand the insurance issue. I’ve started at an eye dr’s office and it was so crazy learning everything and how to handle it. I totally get where you’re coming from ❤️

[HaleySmith]

Loved this Rachel. And it's super inspiring that when you set your mind to something you just go for it. I feel like I've sat in inaction for years and this was such a great reminder to go for it 🌟

[michellemcneill]

I completely agree with your rant!!! Insurance is so garbage. Insurance companies are just a middle man who have agreements with the government so they upcharge to all get out. My husband and I recently switched to a direct primary care office. Basically we directly pay the office $120 per month and we can schedule as many appointments as we need. They are not all encompassing but they do a lot of routine stuff and even have an urgent care. There’s absolutely no insurance involved. It’s kind of like a subscription service for the doctor. It’s actually how medical care used to work, a town would have a doctor that everyone would see and pay directly. Insurance came along and ruined everything
