What a wound care / hyperbaric prior authorization specialist - hbo2 does
A wound care and hyperbaric prior authorization specialist owns the strictly auth-gated world of hyperbaric oxygen therapy and advanced wound treatments - HBO2 courses (authorized by covered indication and treatment count), cellular and tissue-based skin substitutes (grafts), negative-pressure wound therapy, and advanced dressings. They submit through Medicare, Medicare Advantage, and commercial payer portals, attach the indication-specific clinical documentation and wound measurements payers require, track treatment-count limits, follow up on status, work denials, and file appeals.
They know exactly which HBO2 indications are covered and what documentation each payer demands, and they manage re-authorizations as a treatment series progresses so therapy is never interrupted.
A wound care HBO2 prior authorization specialist is a dedicated remote staff member who keeps hyperbaric and advanced-wound treatments authorized on schedule, prevents interrupted therapy, and protects the revenue tied to these high-cost services.

Other wound care / hyperbaric roles we staff
Build a complete remote team for your wound care / hyperbaric practice.
DME Coordinator
A wound care and hyperbaric DME coordinator manages the durable medical equipment that wound healing depends on - compression systems and garments, offloading devices and total-contact casting supplies, negative-pressure wound therapy units, and advanced dressings. They confirm medical necessity, secure authorizations, order through contracted DME suppliers, track delivery, and document everything for CMS compliance.
Learn moreInsurance 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.
Learn morePatient Outreach Coordinator
A wound care and hyperbaric patient outreach coordinator keeps patients on their treatment schedule - confirming the recurring HBO2 and wound-visit cadence, recovering missed appointments before a wound regresses, following up on no-shows, and re-engaging patients who fall out of an active treatment course. They run multi-touch outreach by text, call, and email, document every attempt, and report adherence to the clinical team.
Learn moreReferral Coordinator
A wound care and hyperbaric referral coordinator owns the inbound referral pipeline that feeds the center - intake from hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, home health agencies, primary care, and vascular and podiatry practices. They gather records and wound history, verify insurance, schedule the initial evaluation quickly so chronic wounds are not left to deteriorate, and close the loop back to the referring provider.
Learn moreWound Care Virtual Medical Assistant
A wound care and hyperbaric virtual medical assistant runs the administrative engine of a wound center - scheduling wound visits and HBO2 treatment series, prepping charts, coordinating wound photography and measurement tracking, ordering DME, and keeping the documentation trail tight for CMS compliance. They work inside Net Health WoundExpert, Intellicure, Tissue Analytics, or your EHR exactly like an in-house coordinator.
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.
