Healthcare virtual assistants
Cherry Assistant places virtual medical scribes, receptionists, and administrative assistants for ophthalmology, mental health, internal medicine, dermatology, podiatry, holistic, functional medicine, primary care, doctor's offices, chiropractic, medical aesthetics, and dental practices. EMR-trained. Dedicated VA, not a rotating team.
What you get
Healthcare virtual assistants only work if compliance, EMR fluency, and continuity are non-negotiable from day one. Cherry Assistant treats them that way.
Cherry Assistant trains every healthcare VA on HIPAA before they touch a chart or schedule. Signed BAAs are available on managed-hire plans, and our onboarding covers PHI handling, minimum-necessary access, and audit-trail discipline.
Charts, encounter notes, prior-auth requests, refill queues, lab follow-ups - your VA owns the documentation work that pulls clinicians out of the room. We've staffed inside Athena, eClinicalWorks, DrChrono, SimplePractice, Practice Fusion, Kareo, Jane, Epic, and Cerner.
You get the same vetted person every day. They learn your workflow, your patients' names, your front desk's rhythm. No pooled call-center model, no handoffs, no relearning the chart.
Healthcare VA roles
Most solo and small-group practices start with one dedicated VA who covers multiple roles. Mid-size and group practices split across two or three.
Real-time charting in your EMR during patient encounters so clinicians finish notes at the visit, not at midnight.
Front-desk coverage that schedules, screens, and warm-transfers patients without missing a call.
Back-office throughput on the work that sits between patient care and the practice running - billing follow-up, referrals, supplies, and ops.
