Health Access Network Recognizes Administrative Professionals

Behind every successful organization is a team of administrative support staff.  At Health Access Network (HAN), we are grateful to have a group of very talented administrative professionals who make a positive difference in how we deliver care to our patients and community.  Our administrative professionals include receptionists and switchboard operators who are your first point of contact, billing staff who process insurance claims and payments, medical records clerks who keep patient records in order, referral specialists, as well as administrative assistants and managers who work behind the scenes.  Each one is vitally important to assure our timely delivery of quality health care services.

Administrative Professional’s day is celebrated worldwide on April 25th.  The event was originally organized in 1952 as National Secretaries Week, in an effort to recognize secretaries for their workplace contributions and to attract individuals to secretarial and administrative careers.  In 2000, the International Association of Administrative Professionals (IAAP) changed the name of the event to Administrative Professionals Day to include a much broader range of administrative positions that have evolved mainly by technology.  Many of these positions now require skills in management functions and technology, including project management, internet and email communication, customer service, public relations and more.

We are very proud to recognize and honor our team of 36 administrative employees for their hard work, dedication, and outstanding contributions!
