Understanding the Role of a Biologic Coordinator with Madison Noell

Описание: Madison Noell is a biologic coordinator at Forefront Dermatology, but her path into derm started with a love for cosmetology and a simple belief: helping people feel good about themselves matters. That passion led her into medical assisting, where she quickly realized dermatology isn’t just about acne, it’s about rashes, cancers, chronic conditions, and real quality-of-life changes. Big impact, every day.


Madison describes biologic coordination as “lots of fun, lots of hard work,” and she means it. Behind every biologic prescription is a whole lot of hustle. This episode of That’s Derm Good!, allows host Janelle Ball to highlight the people working behind the scenes. 



Madison started as a medical assistant and is pursuing a career as a Physician Assistant, so she has seen everything about dermatology patient care. The prior authorizations, appeals, and endless phone calls are not glamorous, but they’re essential. What truly fuels her persistence is the patients. Having worked directly on the floor, Madison has seen the flares, the itching, the pain, and the frustration. Those experiences drive her to fight harder because every approval means someone gets relief, confidence, and a better day.


Janelle and Madison also unpack the growing complexity of insurance approvals, from restrictive commercial plans to diagnoses that are flat-out excluded. They discuss patient assistance programs, bridge programs, and the creative problem-solving it takes to navigate a system that often feels stacked against patients.


Through it all, Madison Noell makes one thing clear: she doesn’t stop at “no.” She digs, documents, escalates, and advocates: case by case, person by person.



This episode is a love letter to biologic coordinators everywhere and a reminder that access to care doesn’t happen by accident. It happens because of people like Madison who refuse to give up.
