• Process incoming lab/imaging results and communicate outcomes to patients per provider direction

• Maintain and track clinical supplies, medication inventory, expiration logs, and vaccine temperature logs

• Support patient flow by scheduling follow-up appointments and ensuring continuity of care

• Support basic administrative tasks such as appointment scheduling, patient communication, and supply management when needed
