What I'm looking for

I’m looking for remote US-based healthcare roles where I can support telehealth teams end-to-end—medical billing, coding, insurance verification, prior authorizations, and HIPAA-compliant administration—while helping reduce denials and improve revenue outcomes.

I’m a Certified Remote Medical Administrative Professional trained at Amarae Telemedicine Academy, where I built practical skills in medical billing, ICD-10-CM/CPT coding, insurance verification, prior authorization, and revenue cycle workflows. I’m detail-oriented and highly organised, and I support US-based healthcare providers and telehealth practices remotely across all time zones.

In my role as a Medical virtual assistant (April 2025 – May 2025), I completed end-to-end patient case simulations, processed prior authorization requests, reviewed EOBs and AR aging reports, and drafted formal appeal letters for denied authorizations. Previously, as an Administrative Support Officer at Lagos State Government — Ministry of Health, I managed patient records and appointment scheduling for a high-volume facility, improving scheduling accuracy by 30% through aligned workflows.
