FULL TIME

Health Records Clerk - Health Information Services

Founded in 1921, Straub Medical Center includes a 159-bed hospital in Honolulu, a network of neighborhood clinics and a visiting specialist program that reaches throughout the state of Hawai'i. With over 200 physicians who are leaders in their fields, Straub provides its patients with diagnoses and treatments for more than 32 different medical specialties, including bone and joint, heart, cancer, endocrinology/diabetes, family medicine, gastroenterology, geriatric medicine, internal medicine, vascular and urology. Straub is home to the Pacific Region’s only multidisciplinary burn treatment center. The hospital consistently brings new technologies and innovative medical practices to Hawai'i, such as minimally invasive cardiac surgery and total joint replacement.
Health Information Services (HIS) processes patient medical records and releases health information to patients, physicians, and other outside facilities for treatment, payment, or review. HIS is the custodian and gatekeeper for privacy of the organization’s medical records and also generates the coding procedures for data collection, research, and reimbursement. With the widespread computerization of health records and other information sources, including hospital administration functions and health human resources information, health informatics and health information technology are being increasingly used in the health care sector.
If you are meticulous and highly organized with information management, you could be the ideal candidate for our Health Records Clerk position. In this role, you would play a key role in ensuring that patient records are maintained and protected according to the quality standards of Straub’s Information Services. This includes: general patient record maintenance (record assembly, record inventory, master patient index validation and assisting physicians with the completion of records), as well as directing phone calls to appropriate parties and assists with record requests as needed. We are looking for someone who is able to work independently with minimal supervision and shares our commitment to delivering the highest quality health care to Hawai‘i’s people.
