Role Summary

The Revenue Associate plays a mission-critical, dual-focused role. The primary responsibility is to convert clinically recommended admissions/surgeries into confirmed inpatient (IPD) cases and support the hospital’s revenue mandate.

Equally important is to ensure that every patient and attendant experiences a compassionate, seamless, and professional journey from the first counselling interaction to discharge. This role acts as the bridge between clinical intent and patient decision-making, combining strong sales competency with deep empathy and operational coordination.
