I am a HIPAA-certified Medical Virtual Assistant with a clinical background in Biomedical Science (Medical Laboratory Science). I combine hands-on healthcare knowledge with strong administrative expertise to support medical practices, telehealth platforms, and healthcare teams remotely - accurately, efficiently, and with full attention to patient confidentiality. 📌How I work: When I onboard with a new client, my first priority is understanding your EHR or EMR system and your existing workflows. Whether you use platforms like AdvancedMD, Practice Fusion, Athenahealth, or Optimantra, I get up to speed quickly so I can start contributing without hand-holding. I document everything, follow your SOPs exactly, and proactively flag gaps before they become problems. 📌Administrative & scheduling support: I manage patient scheduling, appointment coordination, calendar management, and appointment confirmations across providers and time zones. I handle reschedules, cancellations, and no-show follow-ups proactively to keep provider schedules full and revenue flowing. I maintain accurate patient records, organize documentation, and manage fax queues and document uploads with a detail-oriented approach that keeps nothing lost and nothing late. 📌Insurance verification, billing & prior authorization: I conduct thorough insurance eligibility verification before patient visits, document reference numbers, and confirm benefits details accurately. I support prior authorization requests from preparation through follow-up, and I assist with claims submission, ICD-10 and CPT coding, and denial tracking. My clinical background means I understand medical terminology deeply; I can read a patient chart, identify missing documentation, and coordinate with providers without needing every detail explained. 📌Patient communication & referral coordination: I handle inbound and outbound patient communication via phone, email, portal, and fax in a professional, compassionate manner. I coordinate referrals, collect patient intake information, and ensure that records are complete and uploaded ahead of appointments. I de-escalate concerns calmly and route follow-ups to the right team members to keep care moving without bottlenecks. 📌Workflow & operations: I am a self-starter who identifies inefficiencies and suggests improvements without being asked. I work independently in fast-paced remote environments, manage multiple priorities simultaneously, and consistently meet deadlines. I use Google Workspace, Microsoft Office, and task management tools fluently, and I adapt quickly to new platforms and SOPs. 📌What sets me apart: Most virtual assistants learn healthcare from the outside in. My BSc in Biomedical Science means I already understand how labs, clinics, and care teams operate - which makes me faster to onboard, sharper at catching errors, and more reliable as a long-term partner for any healthcare provider or practice manager. I’m committed to helping you stay organized, save time, and run your clinic efficiently. Let’s work together.
