So, I have been working as an optometrist's assistant in an optometrist's office for a little over a year now. Here I'm in charge of working up the patients, claiming and verifying insurances, collecting payments, answering phone calls, organizing patient information, and handling appointments. I was offered a job to work at the University of Houston College of Optometry to work as a billing specialist at their front desk. Here I would be in charge of billing information and patient medical records but not working up the patients as the students will all be in charge of that.
I was wondering if it is best for me to keep working in my current position or if it is better to start working at UHCO. It is my top choice optometry school but I am unsure which position is best for my situation. I will be applying for the class of 2025 next year.
