Part-Time Remote Phone Caller - Dental Insurance Verification

We're Incisive, a small health-tech company that helps dental offices check patients' insurance before their visit. We're adding one part-time remote contractor to make those calls.

The work: calling dental insurance companies on behalf of dental offices, getting through phone menus, and asking the representative a set list of questions about a patient's coverage. We record the answers on our side; your job is to get clear, complete answers and keep the call friendly. All from home on your own computer.

What we offer

  • $15/hour, paid weekly by direct deposit for the time you log
  • 1099 contractor: you choose your own availability blocks within insurance-company hours (Mon–Fri, 8am–5pm Central)
  • Flexible, part-time. Hours aren't guaranteed and will vary week to week with how much work comes in; roughly 5–15 hours a week to start, with room to grow
  • Work directly with the founder; no layers of management
  • Starting early December

You'll do well here if you

  • Have a clear, friendly phone voice and stay patient on hold
  • Politely ask again when an answer is vague instead of letting it slide
  • Will say "I'm not sure" rather than guess

Requirements

  • Texas resident
  • Your own computer, reliable internet, a quiet place to work and a headset (or willing to get one, about $20)
  • Willing to sign a confidentiality agreement and complete short, paid privacy (HIPAA) training
  • Insurance, medical-office or call-center experience is a plus, not required

To apply: please complete our 10-minute application, which includes a 60-second voice recording: . One question asks for the word molar, so we know you read this far.

Pay: $15.00 per hour

Expected hours: 5.0 – 15.0 per week

Work Location: Remote
