Career Summary

I've been serving U.S. clients since 2017 — starting in customer service and healthcare-adjacent support roles before moving fully into revenue cycle management in 2023. That grounding shows up in how I work with claims: clear communication, steady follow-up, and comfort talking directly with providers and patients.

I specialize in revenue cycle management — the full path a claim takes from a patient's insurance card to a posted payment. My background spans insurance verification, claims submission through both paper and electronic methods, denial follow-up and appeals, payment posting and reconciliation, and client reporting. I started as a Medical Billing Specialist and was promoted to Team Lead within my first billing company. Since September 2024, I've worked as a dedicated RCM virtual assistant for U.S.-based medical billing companies, currently focused on mental and behavioral health providers.

"Nothing sits in pending without a next action — every claim has a status, and every status has a plan."

How I Work
01 — DETAIL

Accuracy under volume

Reconciling dozens of claims, appointments, and payments in a single spreadsheet without losing track of any one of them.

02 — FOLLOW-THROUGH

Nothing stays pending

Every denied or unpaid claim gets a next action — an appeal, a call, or a flag to the right person — until it's resolved.

03 — REPORTING

Status people understand

Turning claims data and payer activity into plain client updates, so nobody has to guess where things stand.

Why Work With Me

The Philippines runs a large share of U.S. healthcare back-office work — insurance verification, claims, billing, and patient support — so specialists here typically already know U.S. payer systems, provider portals, and claims workflows before they ever start with a new client.

That's the environment I trained in. Pairing that with a lower cost of living means you get hands-on RCM work at $14/hr starting rate — without the ramp-up time of someone learning U.S. healthcare billing from scratch.

$14/hr
Dedicated, detail-focused RCM support — a fraction of a U.S. in-house hire, with no benefits, overhead, or recruiting to manage.
01
Built for U.S. healthcare workflows

Trained on U.S. payer portals, EHR/EMR systems, and claims processes from day one — not a general VA background.

02
Real time zone overlap

Structured to overlap with U.S. business hours — not an overnight hand-off with a 12-hour reply gap.

03
Straightforward cost efficiency

A starting rate of $14/hr gets you dedicated, detail-focused RCM work without a full in-house hire.

See It For Yourself

Don't just take my word for it — here's an outside look at why so many U.S. practices and businesses are building teams with Filipino professionals.

How We'll Work Together
Step 01

Discovery call

A quick conversation about your practice, current systems, and where claims or payments are getting stuck.

Step 02

Access & setup

Secure access to your EHR/EMR and payer portals, plus whichever communication tool you already use.

Step 03

Day-to-day workflow

Eligibility checks, claims, denials and appeals, and payment posting handled on a set daily or weekly rhythm.

Step 04

Clear reporting

Regular status updates so you always know what's resolved, what's pending, and what needs your input.

Payment & Invoicing

I invoice on whatever schedule we agree on — weekly or bi-weekly is typical — and accept payment through any of the methods below. Wise is my preferred option: for international transfers it generally comes with lower fees and a better exchange rate than PayPal, so more of what you send actually reaches me. Each option below is clickable — tap any card to open that provider's site in a new tab and check it out for yourself.

Preferred
W Wise

Wise

Best exchange rates and lowest fees for international transfers. My preferred method for regular invoicing.

Visit wise.com
P PayPal

PayPal

Widely used and convenient — fine for one-off or smaller payments, though fees and exchange rates run higher.

Visit paypal.com
R Remitly

Remitly

Available as an alternative, mainly suited to direct bank-to-bank transfers.

Frequently Asked
Will you actually be available during my business hours?

Yes — my schedule is structured around U.S. business hours specifically for this kind of work. The live clock above shows the overlap in real time.

What tools do you use to communicate and share access?

Whatever you're already using — email, Slack, Zoom, or your practice management system's built-in messaging. I work inside your existing EHR/EMR and payer portals rather than asking you to adopt anything new.

How does billing and invoicing work?

We agree on a schedule — weekly or bi-weekly is typical — and I invoice based on hours worked or an agreed project rate, paid through whatever method works best for you.

Can you handle full-time, part-time, or short-term contract work?

Yes. I've done all three, and I'm happy to start smaller and scale up as we figure out what your practice actually needs.

What if my practice uses a system you haven't listed?

I've picked up new EHR/EMR platforms and payer portals on the job before — happy to adapt to whatever your practice already runs on.
