Responsibilities

Position Overview

The Pediatric Behavioral Health Coordinator supports access to Pediatric Behavioral Health services for patients ages 0-26 by reviewing referrals, conducting initial phone screenings, coordinating scheduling, and connecting patients and families to appropriate care. This position serves as a key point of contact for patients, parents/caregivers, providers, clinic staff, and the Pediatric Behavioral Health team.
