$18–$28 / hour 100% Remote Full-Time / Part-Time Multiple U.S. States High School Diploma

Job Overview

Virelia Health connects AR Support Specialists with remote opportunities across healthcare organizations — hospitals, medical practices, specialty clinics, billing companies, and revenue cycle teams.

We are seeking motivated Remote AR Support Specialists for entry-level and early-career opportunities supporting accounts receivable across the United States.

A Remote AR Support Specialist supports accounts receivable, AR aging management, cross-payer AR follow-up, AR coordination, and AR reporting for healthcare organizations. Working within the AR team's scope, the AR Support Specialist is the cross-payer professional who supports the entire AR process — reviewing AR aging across insurance, patient, and government payers, prioritizing follow-up across payer types, coordinating AR tasks with the AR team, and reporting on AR performance — so the organization keeps aging low and cash flow healthy.

No prior healthcare or AR experience is required. Paid training is provided. This role is well-suited to candidates who are organized, comfortable across multiple payer types, and take pride in keeping aging low — including career changers, recent graduates, and first-time remote workers coming from billing, AR, collections, or insurance roles.

The specific healthcare organization, payer mix, and scope of responsibilities will depend on the employer and assignment.

This opportunity may be suitable for professionals searching for AR support jobs, remote AR support specialist, work-from-home accounts receivable jobs, entry-level healthcare jobs no experience, AR follow-up jobs, or virtual AR specialist roles.

No Experience Required — We'll Train You

This is a true entry-level role. No prior healthcare or AR experience is required. Employers provide paid training on AR aging management, cross-payer follow-up (insurance, patient, government), AR coordination, AR reporting, billing systems, payer portals, and HIPAA compliance. If you are organized, comfortable across multiple payer types, and can learn new software, you're a great fit. Many of our AR Support Specialists come from billing, AR, collections, and insurance roles.

Above-Market Pay for AR Support

This position offers $18–$28 per hour — an elevated range reflecting the cross-payer AR knowledge, aging reduction responsibility, and coordination across the AR team this role carries. AR Support sits above single-payer and generalist billing roles on the career ladder, and the compensation reflects that. Entry-level candidates typically start around $18–$20 and advance toward $28 as they build cross-payer AR expertise and aging reduction success.

Structured Remote AR Work with Predictable Hours

Remote AR support runs on scheduled AR cycles, aging review calendars, and payer follow-up windows, giving your workday predictability and structure. Programs typically offer daytime weekday coverage, with some AR teams supporting early morning or late-day coverage to align with payer call centers and month-end close. Many specialists work flexible 8-hour days, and some work part-time schedules around school or family commitments. There are no clinical duties, minimal patient-facing work, and no in-person office requirements. We offer both full-time and part-time positions. Discuss your preferred schedule during your interview.

What You'll Do

As a Remote AR Support Specialist, you may support AR operations across a range of accounts receivable tasks.

  • Review AR aging — working the AR aging report across payer types.
  • Support AR aging by payer type — insurance, patient, and government AR.
  • Prioritize AR tasks — prioritizing AR follow-up across payer types.

  • Support patient AR — supporting patient balances and self-pay AR.
  • Support government AR — supporting Medicare and Medicaid AR follow-up.
  • Support commercial AR — supporting commercial payer AR follow-up.
  • Coordinate AR tasks — coordinating AR follow-up tasks across the AR team.
  • Support AR handoffs — routing AR work to the right team.

Cross-Payer AR Focus

Remote AR support is a growing area — driven by increased demand for aging reduction, expanded remote AR workflows, and the recognition that dedicated AR Support Specialists improve aging performance, reduce write-offs, and improve cash flow. Remote AR Support Specialists extend AR capacity, support healthcare organizations, and improve AR outcomes across organizations.

Depending on the program, AR support may focus on:

AR aging management
Insurance AR support
Patient AR support
Government AR support
AR coordination
AR reporting

The AR Support Specialist's role is to provide AR support within the AR team's scope — including aging review across payer types, cross-payer AR prioritization, AR coordination, AR reporting, AR documentation, and AR metric tracking. Clinical decisions, coding decisions, and revenue recognition remain with clinical, coding, and revenue cycle leadership; the AR Support Specialist supports the AR process and coordinates with billing, claims, denial, insurance follow-up, patient financial services, and revenue cycle teams.

This structure keeps the role focused on cross-payer AR aging management, AR coordination, AR reporting, documentation, and AR performance outcomes.

Cross-Payer AR Support, Aging Management & Coordination

The AR Support Specialist handles the cross-payer AR work that keeps aging low — every payer type (insurance, patient, government) needs attention, AR tasks need to be coordinated, and AR performance needs to be reported. You'll review AR aging (across payer types), prioritize AR tasks (across insurance, patient, and government AR), support AR follow-up (across payer types), coordinate AR tasks (with the broader AR team), track AR metrics (days in AR, aging buckets), and report AR performance (to AR and revenue cycle leadership).

Depending on the AR focus, you may support AR by:

  • Reviewing AR aging — across payer types.
  • Supporting AR by payer type — insurance, patient, government.
  • Prioritizing AR tasks — across payer types.
  • Supporting insurance AR — insurance AR follow-up.
  • Supporting patient AR — patient balances and self-pay.
  • Supporting government AR — Medicare and Medicaid AR.
  • Supporting commercial AR — commercial payer AR.
  • Coordinating AR tasks — across the AR team.
  • Supporting AR handoffs — routing to the right team.
  • Supporting AR corrections — corrections and adjustments.
  • Supporting AR write-offs — write-off recommendations.
  • Supporting AR reconciliation — AR reconciliation tasks.
  • Updating AR records — aging notes accurately.
  • Supporting AR reporting — aging reports.
  • Tracking AR metrics — days in AR, aging buckets.
  • Supporting AR meetings — team huddles and reviews.
  • Flagging AR issues — for escalation.
  • Working across multiple systems — billing, payer portals, EHR.
  • Supporting AR quality — accuracy and audit readiness.
  • Documenting AR activity accurately.
  • Following AR policies — including escalation and documentation rules.
  • Maintaining HIPAA compliance across all AR work.

Cross-payer agility, attention to detail, and reliability are essential — AR Support Specialists help healthcare organizations keep aging low and cash flow healthy.

Patient Privacy & HIPAA Compliance

AR support work directly involves patient information, including names, medical record numbers, dates of service, diagnoses, procedure codes, payer IDs, financial data, and healthcare context. All AR work must comply with HIPAA privacy rules, organizational patient privacy policy, and AR documentation standards. AR concerns requiring supervisor input, financial discrepancies, or issues affecting AR performance must be escalated following the employer's escalation protocol. AR Support Specialists must maintain HIPAA compliance and protect patient data across all AR work.

A Typical Day

A typical day may begin by logging into the billing system — reviewing the AR aging report, checking the aging buckets across payer types, and identifying the day's priority AR work.

You'll review AR aging — scanning aging buckets (30, 60, 90, 120+ days) across insurance, patient, and government AR.

You'll prioritize across payers — building the day's AR work list by age, dollar value, and payer type.

You'll support AR follow-up — supporting insurance AR, patient AR, government AR, and commercial AR follow-up tasks as assigned.

You'll coordinate AR tasks — reaching out to billing, claims, denial, insurance follow-up, patient financial services, and revenue cycle teams to unblock AR items and keep the aging moving.

You'll support aging reduction — supporting corrections, adjustments, reconciliation, and write-off recommendations per policy.

You'll track metrics and report — updating days in AR, aging buckets, and other AR KPIs, and supporting AR reporting for AR leadership.

You'll document and escalate — recording your AR activity accurately in the billing system and flagging AR issues that require escalation.

Between tasks, you'll support AR meetings (team huddles, aging reviews), continuous improvement, and AR quality goals.

Throughout the day, you'll work across multiple AR, billing, payer portal, and EHR systems, document your AR activity accurately, support AR quality goals, and maintain HIPAA compliance across all AR work.

The role combines cross-payer AR aging management, AR coordination, aging reduction support, AR metrics tracking, AR reporting, documentation, and AR quality support.

Unlike clinical roles that require a nursing license or clinical certification, this AR Support Specialist role is a true entry-level position — you help healthcare organizations keep aging low and cash flow healthy.
