Cardiology

Specialty-trained support for high-acuity care.

Cardiology practices need staff who understand stress tests, echo, cath lab scheduling, device monitoring (Medtronic, Boston Scientific, Abbott, Biotronik), and the complex prior authorization landscape for advanced imaging. Our cardiology-trained virtual medical assistants handle pre-procedure prep, remote device clinic follow-ups, prior auths for cardiac CT, MRI, and PET, AICD/pacemaker check coordination, and complex referral workflows with primary care and electrophysiology. Live in your EHR within 48 hours.
