About Us

At Teem, we empower healthcare providers by managing essential front and back-office tasks so they can focus on delivering exceptional patient care. As a Virtual Assistant, you'll be a flexible, dependable extension of the practice team, supporting patients, providers, and office operations across a range of responsibilities.

Position Summary

This is a broad, hybrid role that blends patient communication, scheduling, clinical documentation support, administrative assistance, and billing or insurance tasks. Virtual Assistants are cross‑trained generalists: the specific mix of responsibilities will vary by client placement, but every Virtual Assistant should be comfortable moving between patient-facing communication, back‑office administrative work, and detail-driven documentation. Your work ensures smooth operations and a dependable, welcoming experience for every patient and provider you support.

Provide chat‑based support for billing and insurance inquiries with a friendly, clear approach. Document all actions taken in both internal and client systems.

Sales & Lead Generation (as assigned)

Make outbound calls to generate new patient leads, when part of the placement. Follow up on marketing inquiries and campaign leads.
