Virtual Medical Assistant specializing in bilingual EHR documentation and prior authorizations.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Virtual Medical Assistant with 3+ years of experience supporting U.S.-based medical practices remotely across family medicine and pediatric care, working in CST and EST time zones. I focus on accurate medical records management, clinical form completion, and bilingual patient communication to keep care moving smoothly.
In my roles, I requested, reviewed, and updated electronic medical records in eClinicalWorks, and maintained audit-ready documentation in Athena. I handle prior authorization workflows for medications, DME, and referrals—validating against PDL and pharmacy records, tracking renewals, and coordinating with providers to resolve discrepancies quickly.
I also strengthen the patient experience through outbound lab/result communication, appointment scheduling, and follow-ups for chronic care and controlled medication monitoring. HIPAA-trained and GCP-certified, with a Biomedical Sciences background from UNAM, I bring deep medical terminology understanding and a quality-and-productivity mindset to every concurrent, remote workload.
