Senior Patient Access Representive

I’m looking for advice from a hospital (lab) biller. My young adult daughter just so happen to finally open her mail and she found out that she could go into collections but she has 10 days. I just don’t know when the 10 days start or end it doesn’t really say but they billed it to the wrong blue Cross they build it to the state that we live in but it’s out of state so it didn’t get to my insurance as a claim . She can’t pay partial like in good faith. It needs to be in full. $700

          Pros

          University benefits, holidays and educations benefits

          Cons

          This is a union run employer, so expect "some" low quality co-workers that are under no threat of being fired for their poor performance and toxicity. This is fine if you want to work in a "checked out" work environment. Long term employees know how to game the system and work divisively instead of collaboratively. My HR on-boarding experience was probably the worst I have ever encountered in my career as they do not represent the university in a positive way.

                  Pros

                  There's a lot of flexibility here. The benefits are very good and we get a lot of vacation/sick time--so much to be the envy of others. As a state employer, employee rights, discrimination, harassment are all taken seriously.

                  Cons

                  The bad news is that the departments have more of an adversarial feel rather than a working together toward a common goal. Getting technological improvements moves very slowly and process protocols are ridiculously complicated. There tends to be a lot of political infighting. Also, it is really difficult to get a raise here beyond a few cost-of-living increases. Upward mobility is difficult--you basically have to move out of your department into a completely different job in order to move up.

                      Alex L.

                      Applied for a job a few weeks back, got a call from HR yesterday morning about an interview next week. She mentioned she'd shoot me an email with all the interview details, but so far, my inbox is empty. Assuming I'll hear from her early next week, is it normal for them to expect me to show up for an in-person interview on short notice, like couple days?
