Staffing For Doctors vs MEDVA

Choosing between Staffing For Doctors and MEDVA? Staffing For Doctors places dedicated, specialty-trained virtual medical staff for U.S. practices starting at $14 an hour, with 48-hour onboarding, weekly QA, a HIPAA-compliant client dashboard, and a same-week replacement guarantee, typically the better fit when you need speed, transparent pricing, and accountable QA. MEDVA pioneered the medical VA category. Staffing For Doctors offers comparable talent with stronger specialty training, a flat transparent rate, and HIPAA compliance built into every engagement - not gated behind a paid Security Package add-on.

The most common reasons doctors switch are faster onboarding (48 hours vs. 1–4 weeks), dedicated specialty pods instead of generalist or shared assistants, transparent pricing starting at $14 an hour with no setup fees, weekly QA scoring, and the same-week replacement guarantee that removes the risk of a bad-fit placement.

As of mid-2026, MEDVA no longer publishes an hourly rate card: its pricing page describes pricing starting at $14 an hour quoted per engagement that varies by role type (administrative, bilingual, licensed medical assistant, certified scribe) and by security tier, from standard remote setups up to an Epic-approved secured facility, with no setup fees and no long-term commitment. Staffing For Doctors is starting at $14 an hour, and every engagement already includes the HIPAA infrastructure, BAA, audited devices, encryption, and audit logs that MEDVA prices as higher security tiers. Bilingual coverage is also included at the same starting at $14 an hour rather than quoted up. The honest summary: MEDVA may quote lower for a standard remote role; once you need real HIPAA controls, you cannot know MEDVA's number without a discovery call, while SFD's is published.
