Illinois dermatology roles we staff
Dermatology Virtual Medical Assistant
A dermatology virtual medical assistant is a dedicated remote staff member who runs the daily admin workload of a dermatology practice — scheduling medical derm visits, surgical derm and Mohs cases, and cosmetic consults inside Modernizing Medicine EMA, Nextech, eClinicalWorks, or Athena. They route portal and phone messages, manage refills (including biologics), coordinate biopsy result outreach, and run the medical and cosmetic schedules in parallel.
Learn moreCosmetic Coordinator / Patient Concierge
A dermatology cosmetic coordinator is the dedicated voice that converts inbound aesthetic inquiries into booked consults and procedures. They walk patients through Botox, dermal fillers, laser (IPL, BBL, Fraxel, Clear & Brilliant), microneedling, body contouring (CoolSculpting, EmSculpt), and chemical peels with the warmth of a luxury concierge. They quote pricing, manage deposits, send pre-treatment instructions, and run rebooking and loyalty outreach to keep cosmetic patients on schedule.
Learn moreMohs Scheduler
A dermatology Mohs scheduler coordinates every Mohs micrographic surgery case from biopsy diagnosis to surgery day. They confirm pathology, secure insurance authorization where required, schedule the case in the right OR slot, send pre-op instructions to the patient (anticoagulant management, NPO instructions if applicable), and confirm 48 hours out. They also coordinate same-day reconstruction or referral to plastic surgery when needed.
Learn morePrior Authorization Specialist (Biologics)
A dermatology prior authorization specialist owns prior auths for biologics and high-cost specialty medications — Dupixent, Skyrizi, Cosentyx, Tremfya, Otezla, Rinvoq, Cibinqo, Adbry, and Stelara — across commercial, Medicare, and Medicaid managed care plans. They submit through CoverMyMeds, payer portals, and patient assistance programs (manufacturer copay cards, free drug, foundations), attach the required clinical documentation (failed therapies, severity scores, lab values), and chase status until approval.
