As a Patient Services Coordinator, patience should be one of your best traits. Being able to answer tough questions to unwell or upset patients calmly will be one of your biggest challenges. Guiding and counseling patients test your patience. Have a short situation story handy if asked this question. Give an example of when you had to be particularly patient with a patient and what the outcome was.

"I had a patient that had questions about her medical bill. We weren't on the same page so I decided to spin my monitor around and start at the beginning. I was able to show the patient each transaction and explain it along the way. By taking a few extra minutes explaining the bill to the patient I was able to avoid any unnecessary upset to the patient."
