What is a Remote Dental Administrative Assistant?

Don’t be confused by the name. A remote dental admin assistant isn’t a robot or a form of AI that you’re relying on. A remote dental admin assistant is indeed a person that works remotely to assist a dental facility in their everyday activities.

Our Dental Virtual Administrative Assistant 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.
