What a obstetrics and gynecology prior authorization specialist does
An OB/GYN prior authorization specialist owns prior auths for advanced imaging (pelvic MRI, breast MRI), specialty medications (Orilissa, GnRH agonists, fertility injectables), genetic testing, IUDs, Nexplanon, biologics for endometriosis, and MFM referrals. They submit through eviCore, Carelon, payer portals, and CoverMyMeds, attach the required clinical documentation, and chase status until resolution.
They know the prior auth rules of Medicaid managed care, BCBS, UHC, Aetna, and Humana for women's health services.
An OB/GYN prior authorization specialist is a remote staff member who keeps approval rates high and prevents the care delays that cost women's health practices revenue and patient trust.

Insurance Verification Specialist (Medicaid & Commercial)
An OB/GYN insurance verification specialist runs eligibility 48–72 hours before every visit and procedure across both Medicaid managed care (presumptive eligibility, OB benefit packages, Healthy Start) and commercial OB/GYN coverage. They confirm specialist copays, deductibles, OB global benefits, surgical benefits, and any visit limits, and they handle Medicaid OB enrollment for newly pregnant patients.
Learn moreLab & Ultrasound Results Coordinator
An OB/GYN lab and ultrasound results coordinator triages every result that lands in the provider's inbox - Pap smears with HPV co-test, GC/CT, prenatal labs, glucose tolerance, NIPT, anatomy scans, and growth ultrasounds. They normal-flag routine values per provider protocol, send patient letters and portal messages for normal results, and escalate abnormal results (atypical Pap, abnormal NIPT, growth restriction, low fluid) to the provider with a draft action plan.
Learn moreMedical Receptionist / Front Desk
An OB/GYN virtual medical receptionist runs the inbound phone, voicemail, and portal traffic of a women's health practice, books prenatal visits, well-woman exams, GYN problem visits, and surgical consults in the right slot length, manages the cancellation waitlist, and handles new patient intake including referral source, prior records, and insurance details.
Learn moreMedical Scribe
An OB/GYN medical scribe joins each clinic encounter live and documents the visit into the EHR - focused OB or GYN HPI, exam, ultrasound interpretation, prenatal flowsheet updates, surgical consent documentation, and the assessment and plan. They are trained on OB/GYN-specific templates: prenatal visits at every gestational age, postpartum, well-woman exam, IUD insertion, colposcopy, and pre-op consent.
Learn moreOB Coordinator / Prenatal Liaison
An OB coordinator and prenatal liaison owns the prenatal patient experience from positive pregnancy test to postpartum visit. They schedule the OB intake, complete the prenatal risk stratification (low-risk, moderate, high-risk for MFM referral), schedule the recurring prenatal visit cadence (every 4 weeks → every 2 weeks → weekly), recall missed appointments, and coordinate ultrasounds, NIPT, glucose tolerance, GBS, and anatomy scans on time.
Learn moreOB/GYN Virtual Medical Assistant
An OB/GYN virtual medical assistant is a dedicated remote staff member who runs the daily admin workload of an OB/GYN practice - scheduling prenatal visits, well-woman exams, gynecologic visits, and surgical consults inside Athena Women's Health, eClinicalWorks OB, NextGen, or Epic ObGyn. They route portal and phone messages, manage refills (oral contraceptives, fertility medications, hormone replacement), coordinate ultrasound and lab follow-up, and run the prenatal recall calendar.
Learn moreWhat $14/hr really buys
What $14/hr includes by default
Other vendors quote a lower hourly rate, then bill these as add-ons. At Staffing For Doctors, the four things that actually drive clinical accuracy and accountability are bundled into the same $14/hr.
US-based account management
Every account has a US-based Customer Success Manager who owns escalations, weekly check-ins, and QA review — not a shared offshore inbox.
Specialty-matched pods
Your VA is trained inside a pod built around your specialty's EHR, payer mix, and workflows across 55+ specialties — not a generalist pulled from a healthcare queue.
Weekly QA scoring with client dashboard
Every placement is scored weekly against an accuracy and turnaround rubric, and you see those scores live in your dashboard — not a monthly summary email.
HIPAA infrastructure included
BAA, audited devices, AES-256 encryption, MFA, role-based access, and audit logs are part of every engagement at no extra charge — not a compliance package billed on top.
