Where do Philippine medical VAs get hired? (October 2026)

Each row restates that page as we read it on 2026-10-27. RemoteNurse comes first because it is training, not a hirer, so it is not a place to apply.

How do you become a medical virtual assistant from the Philippines, step by step?

1. Know what the title means. If the term is new, read what a medical virtual assistant is first: the tasks, who hires, and how the title overlaps utilization review, prior authorization, and billing.
2. Pick one desk. Compare the 16 desks or let the planner narrow them down. Training for one desk beats a general course.
3. Check the license rule in real postings. 15 desks need no US nursing license; utilization review generally does. The posting, not the title, decides.
4. Practice the workflow. Work practice cases until you can explain why a packet is complete or what is missing. The training options are below.
5. Apply with proof. Write a resume that shows how you work, then check openings and agencies. No course or app can promise a hire.

What hours would you work from the Philippines?

Most US clinics and payers keep US business hours. Here is New York’s working day on your clock.

This is our arithmetic from each place’s time zone rules, not a schedule. Each posting sets its own hours, and some follow US Central or Pacific time.
