Role Description

The Medical Information Contact Center (MICC) is Harrow’s centralized intake and communication hub for handling medical inquiries (MIs), adverse event (AE) reports, and product quality complaints (PQCs) for Harrow’s ophthalmic products. As the first point of contact for patients, healthcare professionals (HCPs), and caregivers, the MICC ensures every interaction is received, documented, triaged, and routed in accordance with Quality Assurance (QA), Pharmacovigilance (PV), and regulatory requirements to safeguard patient safety and support timely follow-up.

Reporting to the MICC Supervisor, the MICC Coordinator provides administrative and intake support for QA and PV activities—receiving, documenting, and routing MIs, AE reports, and PQCs accurately, timely, and compliantly. The role also supports follow-up activities, product replacement coordination, recall-related customer communication, and the maintenance of QA and PV documentation and trackers.

• Maintain and update QA and PV documentation, trackers, and case logs—including data entry, record keeping, and preparation of routine reports—to ensure data integrity, completeness, and audit readiness.
• Collaborate with QA, PV, Medical Information, Customer Service, and Compliance teams to ensure timely case resolution and escalate issues that require additional review.
• Protect patient privacy and confidentiality at all times, handling personal health information (PHI) in accordance with HIPAA, internal SOPs, and applicable regulatory requirements.
• Engage in ongoing training on Harrow product knowledge, QA/PV regulatory procedures, adverse event reporting requirements, and complaint-handling standards.
