Healthcare Virtual Assistant for Doctors and Dentists
The Premier Healthcare Virtual Assistant Service
How will a trained healthcare virtual assistant work in my medical or dental office?
Our answer? “Seamlessly.”
“We need more help everywhere, but can’t find qualified staff that’s available at a reasonable price.”
“As the doctor, I am spending way too much of my valuable time, time that could be spent seeing more patients or with my family, keeping my EHR up to date.”
Adding qualified healthcare professionals to your staff is the solution, but hiring onsite staff is prohibitively expensive in the current economy…

Healthcare Virtual Assistant Frequently Asked Questions
What kinds of tasks can MedVA’s Medical Virtual Assistants and Dental Virtual Assistants handle in a healthcare office?
Our Medical Virtual Assistants and Dental Virtual Assistants efficiently manage medical reception (supporting phone lines), appointment management and scheduling, insurance authorization, insurance verification, medication refills, medical records management, billing, and collections, among other tasks. If you so desire, they can even assist you with personal concerns.
Can your Medical Virtual Assistants and Dental Virtual Assistants work in any type of medical or healthcare practice?
Absolutely. Our Medical and Dental Virtual Assistants can work in practices of all sizes and specialties.
Do your Medical Virtual Assistants and Dental Virtual Assistants have a medical/healthcare background?
Yes, all of our Medical Virtual Assistants and Dental Virtual Assistants are situated in the Philippines and are healthcare professionals. The majority are Registered Nurses with four years of clinical experience and a rigorous nursing education. They therefore contribute essential knowledge of healthcare terminology and processes to their professions.
What training do your Medical Virtual Assistants and Dental Virtual Assistants have?
Each of our Medical Virtual Assistants and Dental Virtual Assistants receives a comprehensive training program established by our company’s founder to familiarize them with EHR/EMR systems, HIPAA compliance, security regulations, and best-practice remote working methods. Obviously, this is in addition to their healthcare training and experience. Although the majority of our Virtual Assistants are Registered Nurses, a few hold other healthcare-related degrees.
You will need to train your Medical Virtual Assistants and Dental Virtual Assistants on the specific workflow to which they will be allocated in your office, just as you would train any new in-house employee with a good professional background.
How old are your Medical Virtual Assistants and Dental Virtual Assistants?
While the age varies, most of our Medical Virtual Assistants and Dental Virtual Assistants tend to be in the 25-35 age range.
How will hiring our Medical Virtual Assistants and Dental Virtual Assistants improve my bottom line?
When you include in minimum wage, payroll taxes, and office space, our flat fee can save you up to 70% compared to the expense of an in-house employee. When you collaborate with MedVA’s Medical and Dental Virtual Assistants, you will also avoid the major legal risk associated with hiring an employee in-house in certain states.
In addition, utilizing a virtual medical or dental receptionist to answer your phone lines ensures that potential patients who call your office will not switch to another provider because they were unable to reach you. Doctors that utilize our scribe/translation service will be able to visit more patients per day due to the time saved by not having to update their EHR/EMR.

What about HIPAA compliance and PHI security?
Our Medical and Dental Virtual Assistants are all HIPAA-trained and HIPAA-certified. At the time of onboarding, our staff verifies that the computer hardware and anti-virus software comply with our requirements. Clients should have their Virtual Medical and Dental Assistants sign Business Associate Agreements. Our organization is not required to sign a BAA because we do not have access to Patient Health Information.
Our Medical and Dental Virtual Assistants are located in the Philippines (with the exception of Spanish-speaking virtual assistants who are located in South America and are available upon request), where a large number of the country’s citizens are employed by U.S. companies, particularly U.S.-based healthcare companies. US companies and US-based healthcare companies are important to the Philippine economy and a major employer in the Philippines, so the Philippine government has enacted strict laws prohibiting Philippine citizens from disclosing confidential information in order to make US companies feel secure conducting business there. In 2012, the Philippine government established the Data Privacy Act, which is comparable to the HIPAA statute in the United States. The Data Privacy Act of 2012 gives coverage protection to U.S. firms that employ Philippine labor, while harshly punishing Philippine nationals who knowingly expose Patient Health Information of U.S. entities.
Please see here for more information about the Data Privacy Act of 2012.
