How Do You Train a Virtual Medical Assistant to Handle Patient Calls?

Can Outsourcing Prior Authorization Cut Turnaround Times and Reduce Staff Burnout?
Prior authorization (PA) is a process used by health insurance companies to confirm that a prescribed treatment, service, or medication is medically necessary before it is delivered. This step is intended to manage healthcare costs, avoid unnecessary procedures, and ensure appropriate patient care.

How Virtual Medical Assistants Keep Care Personal in a Digital World?
Jane Doe, a 72-year-old patient managing diabetes and hypertension, logs into her telehealth appointment. She’s greeted not by a hold tone or long wait time—but by a calm, helpful voice. “Hi Jane, this is your virtual medical assistant. Let’s confirm your medications before we start with the doctor.” While Jane chats about her new symptoms and recent blood sugar readings, her provider joins with everything already prepped. After the visit, the assistant schedules follow-ups, sends her a printed summary, and
RCM Workflow Optimization Strategies in Hospitals
As healthcare systems face rising costs and increasing administrative burdens, optimizing Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) workflows has become a critical priority for hospitals. RCM encompasses the entire process of managing patient revenue—from registration to final payment—and inefficiencies at any stage can result in significant financial losses, delayed payments, and patient dissatisfaction. By strategically refining each component of the workflow, hospitals can boost operational performance, improve cash flow, and enhance overall care delivery. Key Areas of the RCM Workflow Before exploring
AI Tools for Healthcare Revenue Cycle Automation
Healthcare organizations face increasing pressure to optimize financial performance while maintaining high-quality care.
