Hiring virtual medical staff for a wound care / hyperbaric practice in New Jersey
Wound care centers and hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO2) programs live and die by prior authorization and documentation. HBO2 is strictly auth-gated and reimbursed by indication and treatment count, wound visits demand rigorous dressing, debridement, and measurement documentation for CMS compliance, and referral volume from hospitals and skilled nursing facilities is the lifeblood of the center. The administrative load is heavy: treatment authorization cycles, wound photography and measurement tracking, DME ordering for compression and offloading, referral intake, and the CMS documentation that protects every claim. Our wound care virtual medical assistants drive HBO2 and treatment authorizations, keep wound documentation airtight, order DME, capture hospital and SNF referrals, and keep the schedule full. Trained on Net Health WoundExpert, Intellicure, Tissue Analytics, and your EHR so they step into your team on day one. Onboarded in 48 hours, HIPAA compliant, and starting at $14/hour.
New Jersey has more than 35,000 active physicians and one of the highest physician-per-capita densities in the country, with major hubs in Newark, Jersey City, Trenton, and the Princeton corridor. Heavy demand from specialty groups (cardiology, GI, dermatology, OB-GYN) and concierge primary care.

New Jersey wound care / hyperbaric roles we staff
Insurance Verification Specialist
A wound care and hyperbaric insurance verification specialist runs eligibility and benefits before treatment for Medicare, Medicare Advantage, Medicaid, and commercial payers - confirming coverage for wound visits, HBO2 courses, skin substitutes, and DME, and documenting copays, deductibles, and treatment-count limits so the center can plan and collect correctly. They flag plans with restrictive HBO2 or graft coverage early and brief the team before a treatment series starts.
