  • Computer literacy and the ability to navigate CRM or patient management systems.
  • Ability to manage a high volume of interactions while maintaining quality.

  • Ability to balance emotional support and clinical qualification in the same conversation.
  • Confidence to guide conversations toward an outcome without making patients feel rushed or dismissed.
