Medical Virtual Assistant Services
Medical virtual assistant services connect phones, intake, scheduling, payer paperwork and documentation support. A Team Lead organizes the account before the Primary and Backup MVA begin. You set permissions and approvals; the team records progress and routes exceptions.

Documentation Backlog
Progress notes, referral letters, and EHR updates pile up, creating compliance risks and delays.

The Team Lead learns how work enters your practice and documents each queue in written and video SOPs, which you keep. The Primary MVA handles daily tasks under that oversight, and the Backup MVA learns the same process. Work takes place inside your EHR, practice-management system, payer portals and phone system with your permissions.
Agree on reporting before work starts: a task log, open-item list and a review cadence that fits your practice. Track completed work separately from requests awaiting provider approval. Most practices are onboarded within 7 days, depending on the complexity of the tasks.
Who it's for
For mental health clinics, therapy practices and multi-provider groups, a shared administrative queue connects intake, appointments and payer follow-up. Choose the function creating the most interruptions before expanding the scope.
Mental health clinics, therapists and counselors and group practices.
What stays with your team
Your providers own patient decisions and approve their documentation; your practice sets scheduling, billing and communication policies. We prepare, organize, submit and track the administrative work around those decisions.
Security and HIPAA
Our HIPAA-trained team works through HIPAA-compliant processes, with a BAA with every client. Your practice authorizes system access and defines permitted actions before work begins. Review our security and compliance information when planning access and communication rules.
