Description

This is a remote position. Job Description Rockstar is hiring a full-time Medical Virtual Assistant on behalf of an outpatient physical therapy practice that treats pelvic health, orthopedic, and manual lymph drainage patients. This role is stepping in to replace departing front desk support and become the practice's primary point of contact for patients who call, text, or need help outside of what they can do online. The VA will handle inbound patient communication, keep intake paperwork and faxes moving into the EMR, manage the email inbox, and help troubleshoot common tech hiccups patients run into with the practice's online tools. As the VA settles in, this role is expected to grow into insurance verification and pre-authorizations, and eventually possibly billing. The right person is warm, patient, and genuinely good with people, since many patients are highly educated, have high expectations, and are navigating sensitive topics like pelvic health, pregnancy loss, and chronic pain. They also need to be tech-savvy and quick to pick up new systems, since the practice's EMR is feature-rich and frequently updated. Above all, this person needs to be someone who shows up consistently and follows through independently without needing to be micromanaged.

Many team members are parents balancing demanding, high-standard work with time for their own families, and they support one another closely.
