We are looking for a full-time Virtual Assistant to support a solo psychiatric nurse practitioner practice.
This is a full-cycle healthcare VA role covering both patient communication and billing/insurance tasks. The ideal candidate has experience in a psychiatric or behavioral health practice, can work independently with minimal supervision, and is comfortable handling sensitive patient communications.
Strong spoken English and a professional, warm phone manner are essential, as you will communicate directly with patients, pharmacies, insurance companies, and therapists. You should also be comfortable handling messages that may involve refills or crisis-related concerns and know when to follow escalation protocols.

The ideal candidate will have experience with Valant EMR and Spruce along with prior experience in a behavioral health or psychiatric practice. Experience in this setting is strongly preferred due to the unique workflows involved, including controlled medications, refill schedules, and sensitive or crisis-related patient communications. Candidates should also have full revenue cycle experience in a small or solo practice, with experience managing both front- and back-office responsibilities rather than working exclusively within a specialized function. Strong spoken English is required for live communication with patients, insurance companies, and pharmacies. This role also requires a high level of independence, organization, and ownership, as the practice operates with a very small team and minimal day-to-day supervision.
