Yes. Every VA signs a Business Associate Agreement before they touch any of your systems. They’re trained on PHI handling protocols and minimum-necessary access standards, meaning they only get into the systems and data required for their specific role. All work happens through encrypted, access-controlled connections.
We place VAs with direct experience across the major EHR and practice management platforms, from SimplePractice and TherapyNotes to Athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Kareo, Epic, and more. If your practice runs on a specific system, tell us upfront and we’ll match you with someone specifically for that experience.
You’ll need to walk them through your specific workflows, how your practice runs, your preferences, your internal processes. That part’s normal for any new hire. What you won’t need to do is teach them healthcare basics or how to use your EHR. They already come in with US healthcare experience and hands-on familiarity with major platforms, so training is about your practice, not the fundamentals.
We’ll find you a better match. Our placements are month-to-month, so you’re never locked into a long-term contract with someone who isn’t working out. A replacement typically takes about two weeks, the same timeline as your original placement.
The person joins your team. We don’t take over your billing function or operate as an outsourced department, we place a dedicated VA who works inside your practice, follows your processes, and reports to you directly. Think of it as hiring, not outsourcing a task.
Billing on our end stays simple too: you get one monthly Stripe invoice, and we handle the compliance and paperwork behind it.
Reliability starts before they’re hired. Our vetting process screens specifically for long-term retention, not just skills,. We’re not placing candidates likely to job-hop after a few months. Once they’re working with you, accountability software tracks activity so you have visibility into their work, not just a promise that it’s happening.
