Why Kansas City businesses hire a virtual assistant

The roles Kansas City businesses should hire first
Medical Virtual Assistant
Clinics can hand off scheduling and insurance checks.
Your front desk can breathe. Calls, scheduling and forms move off your in-office staff, so they can focus on the patients in front of them.
- Route clinical questions to your staff
- Handle new patient intake and forms
- Prepare prior authorization paperwork
- Answer patient billing questions
Assistants do not give medical advice. Clinical decisions stay with your staff. Medical virtual assistant packages start at $300 a month for 20 hours. Hire a medical virtual assistant for your Kansas City business.

Why hire your Kansas City assistant from Virtual Assistant
Your assistant works remotely and keeps Central 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.
- HIPAA-trained, with a BAA: Assistants complete HIPAA training, and we sign a Business Associate Agreement before they access protected health information.
- Cover the hours you need: Add evening and weekend coverage or a US business phone number, or choose a full-time shift.
- 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.
