Status: Remote, W-9 (Independent Contractor)

Become a Customer Service Representative, work from home, and set your own schedule while helping others!

If helping patients remain at home and receive care from their loved ones is a cause you feel inspired by, and you take satisfaction in making a positive impact on other people’s lives, this flexible and fulfilling work from home opportunity may be just what you’re looking for.

As a Customer Service Representative, you’ll be answering calls on behalf of a client that provides payroll services for people who are in self-directed Medicaid programs.
