They manage patient records meticulously, ensuring all information is up-to-date and organized, and coordinate appointment schedules to maintain efficient patient flow throughout the day. Receptionists serve as the connective tissue of the store's operations, providing prompt and courteous service whether engaging with customers in person or over the phone. Key responsibilities include answering and forwarding incoming calls according to National Vision protocols, processing managed care plans, and obtaining necessary documentation from insurance companies.
