Practices hand off scheduling and insurance verification.

Fewer gaps in the schedule. Reminders and quick rescheduling help keep appointments filled.

  • Schedule, confirm and reschedule patients
  • Enter data into your EHR
  • Follow up with insurers
  • Report outstanding items to your team

Why hire your New Jersey assistant from Virtual Assistant

Your assistant works remotely and keeps Eastern time business hours, so your day and theirs line up. You get a person who learns your business, with a team behind them when something needs fixing.

  • Experience with senior leaders: Choose a Senior Specialist with 5+ years of experience, or a US-Based Specialist when your role calls for one.
  • Works in your EHR: Epic, athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, DrChrono, Tebra, SimplePractice, Dentrix and more.
  • Easy to start small: Begin with the inbox and calendar on 20 hours a month, then add more as you see what can come off your plate.
  • Free replacement: If your assistant is not the right fit, we match you with a different one at no extra cost.
  • Clear prices, no lock-in: See your exact price before you order. Month-to-month packages can be cancelled any time, and unused hours roll over within your package limit.
  • A US account manager: One person matches you, runs your kickoff call and stays your contact if anything needs fixing.

A virtual assistant or an in-house hire?

An in-house hire makes sense when the job needs someone physically on site. For work done on a screen or a phone, a virtual assistant usually costs far less, because you pay only for working hours, with no recruiting, desk, equipment or payroll taxes to arrange. You can also start with 20 hours a month and grow, instead of committing to a full-time salary before you know how much work there is.

  • Your US account manager matches you within 1 to 3 business days and runs your kickoff call
