About Bask Health
Bask Health is a software platform that enables entrepreneurs, doctors, and healthcare businesses to launch, manage, and grow direct-to-consumer telehealth businesses.
Our platform brings together patient experiences, clinical workflows, pharmacy operations, and commerce tools in one place.
We're an entrepreneurial, product-focused team that values ownership, technical excellence, and building software that solves real problems. Our teams work closely across product, engineering, customer success, sales, and company leadership to bring new capabilities to market and continuously improve the platform.
At Bask, we believe a clear and reliable software experience matters for everyone interacting with the platform. We value people who communicate thoughtfully, pay attention to details, solve problems, and understand when an issue needs to be handled by a specialized team.
About the Role
We're looking for a Patient Experience Associate to support non-clinical patient interactions within Bask Health's telehealth platform, subject to the approved scope of our patient support operations.
This role is designed for someone who enjoys helping people, communicates clearly, and can work through software-related questions with patience and attention to detail.
You'll help patients navigate supported platform experiences, understand where to find information, and resolve routine non-clinical issues.
You'll provide clear, accurate assistance while recognizing when a question requires a licensed healthcare professional, pharmacy team, technical specialist, or other authorized contact.
Bask Health provides software that helps businesses launch and manage direct-to-consumer telehealth services.
The platform includes patient questionnaires, checkout experiences, account-related workflows, and connections to clinical and pharmacy operations.
You'll develop a working understanding of these software experiences so you can help users navigate them appropriately.
You'll assist with routine questions about accessing supported platform features and completing non-clinical steps.
You'll help identify situations where a patient is unable to proceed through an expected platform workflow.
You'll gather relevant details about reported software issues and document them accurately.
You'll troubleshoot basic navigation and access problems using approved procedures.
You'll avoid providing instructions that fall outside the responsibilities or authorization of the patient experience team.
You'll communicate with patients through approved support channels, which may include email, chat, or other systems selected by Bask Health.
You'll provide clear explanations without using unnecessary technical language.
You'll remain professional and patient when assisting people who may be frustrated or confused.
You'll take time to understand the issue before recommending an approved next step.
You'll help patients understand what information or action is needed to resolve a non-clinical platform problem.
You'll maintain accurate records of interactions, reported issues, and follow-up commitments.
You'll follow established procedures for documenting requests and escalating unresolved concerns.
You'll recognize when an issue cannot be resolved through standard troubleshooting.
You'll coordinate with technical support or engineering teams when a platform issue requires additional investigation.
You'll provide relevant information to technical teams so they can investigate problems efficiently.
You'll follow up on open issues according to approved service procedures.
You'll help ensure patients receive accurate updates when a non-clinical issue is being addressed.
You'll work with customer success or merchant support teams when an issue involves a merchant's platform configuration or account responsibilities.
You'll follow established ownership boundaries so requests are directed to the correct organization or team.
You'll recognize when a question concerns a prescription, medication, diagnosis, treatment decision, or other clinical matter.
You'll refer those questions to the appropriate licensed or authorized healthcare professional.
You'll recognize when a question involves medication preparation, dispensing, fulfillment, or pharmacy-specific decisions.
You'll route those matters to the appropriate pharmacy or authorized support channel.
You'll never provide medical advice, recommend medications, interpret clinical information, or make treatment decisions.
You'll avoid making promises about clinical approval, prescription outcomes, medication availability, or fulfillment timelines unless approved information explicitly supports the communication.
You'll follow appropriate privacy, security, and information-handling procedures.
You'll access and share only the information necessary and authorized for your responsibilities.
You'll follow approved identity verification procedures before discussing account-specific information.
You'll use designated systems and communication channels when handling sensitive information.
You'll report suspected privacy or security concerns through established internal procedures.
You'll help identify recurring platform issues that create confusion or prevent patients from completing expected steps.
You'll document common questions and share relevant patterns with the appropriate internal teams.
You'll contribute suggestions for improving patient-facing instructions and support resources.
You'll help maintain accurate internal knowledge articles and troubleshooting guidance.
You'll participate in training to understand new platform features and changes to approved support procedures.
You'll collaborate with customer support, product, and technical teams when appropriate.
You'll help identify unclear error messages, confusing navigation, or other usability issues.
You'll communicate these findings to the appropriate teams rather than making unauthorized changes.
You'll help maintain consistent service quality across assigned support requests.
You'll organize your work to manage multiple conversations and follow-up tasks.
You'll prioritize urgent issues according to established procedures and escalation guidelines.
You'll take responsibility for completing assigned tasks and communicating when additional help is needed.
You'll ask questions when procedures are unclear rather than guessing about sensitive matters.
You'll help create a supportive experience for people who may be unfamiliar with telehealth software.
You'll maintain a professional tone in written and verbal communication.
You'll be comfortable learning new tools and adapting as platform workflows evolve.
You'll work with team members across departments to make sure issues reach the right people.
You'll support continuous improvement by sharing feedback about recurring problems and inefficient processes.
You'll contribute to an environment that values accountability, accuracy, empathy, and clear communication.
We're looking for someone with customer-facing support experience, strong communication skills, and the ability to follow established procedures.

Experience with healthcare technology or patient services would be helpful, but strong customer support experience and the ability to learn software workflows are also valuable.
