About DxTx Pain & Spine
At DxTx Pain & Spine, we’re redefining how pain and spine practices thrive. As a physician-aligned partner organization, we empower independent, award-winning physicians across the country by combining clinical autonomy with strong operational support.
Our model preserves each practice’s unique identity and decision-making freedom, while providing scalable resources in compliance, finance, ASC management, and marketing. Guided by our patient-first philosophy, we diagnose and treat pain at its source using non-surgical and minimally invasive options - reserving surgery as a last resort.
The Opportunity
As a Prior Authorization Coordinator, you’ll play a vital role in ensuring patients receive timely approval for the care they need. You’ll manage the entire authorization process for interventional pain management procedures - supporting both office-based and advanced outpatient treatments.

Collaboration & Communication
- Communicate with practices, vendors, insurance companies, patients, and management to secure necessary approvals.
- Provide the highest level of customer service to internal teams.
- Serve as a backup to the Contact Center Team during peak scheduling call times.
- Perform other related duties as assigned to support smooth operations and patient care continuity.
You’ll Thrive in This Role If You…
- Excel at organization, accuracy, and time management.
- Communicate clearly and professionally - both verbally and in writing.
- Are a proactive problem-solver who enjoys navigating complex processes.
- Value teamwork, adaptability, and supporting patient-centered care.
