Support claims data entry, submission preparation, and payer follow-up — from home. No experience needed.
Virelia Health connects Claims Processing Assistants with remote opportunities across healthcare organizations — hospitals, medical practices, specialty clinics, billing companies, and revenue cycle teams.
We are seeking motivated Remote Claims Processing Assistants for entry-level and early-career opportunities supporting claims processing across the United States.
A Remote Claims Processing Assistant supports claims data entry, claims scrubbing, claims submission preparation, claims tracking, and payer follow-up for healthcare organizations. Working within the claims team's scope, the Claims Processing Assistant is the detail-driven professional who moves claims through the pipeline — entering claim data accurately, scrubbing claims for errors before submission, tracking claims as they move through payers, and following up on unpaid or pending claims so the organization gets paid for the care it delivered.
No prior healthcare or claims experience is required. Paid training is provided. This role is well-suited to candidates who are detail-oriented, comfortable with claims systems and payer portals, and take pride in accurate work — including career changers, recent graduates, and first-time remote workers coming from billing, insurance, data entry, or administrative roles.
The specific healthcare organization, claims focus, and scope of responsibilities will depend on the employer and assignment.
This opportunity may be suitable for professionals searching for claims processing jobs, remote claims processing assistant, work-from-home claims jobs, entry-level healthcare jobs no experience, claims follow-up jobs, or virtual claims assistant roles.
This is a true entry-level role. No prior healthcare or claims experience is required. Employers provide paid training on claims data entry, claims scrubbing, claim forms (CMS-1500 and UB-04), clearinghouses, payer portals, claims tracking, payer follow-up workflows, and HIPAA compliance. If you are detail-oriented, comfortable with claims systems and payer portals, and can learn new software, you're a great fit. Many of our Claims Processing Assistants come from billing, insurance, data entry, and administrative roles.
Remote claims processing runs on scheduled claim queues, submission cycles, and payer follow-up calendars, giving your workday predictability and structure. Programs typically offer daytime weekday coverage, with some claims teams supporting early morning, evening, or weekend coverage during peak billing periods. Many assistants 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.
As a Remote Claims Processing Assistant, you may support claims processing across a range of claims tasks.
Remote claims processing support is a growing area — driven by increased demand for claims capacity, expanded remote claims workflows, and the recognition that dedicated claims assistants improve clean claim rates, reduce claim errors, and improve revenue cycle performance. Remote Claims Processing Assistants extend claims capacity, support healthcare organizations, and improve claims outcomes across organizations.
Depending on the program, claims processing may focus on:
The Claims Processing Assistant's role is to provide claims support within the claims team's scope — including claims data entry, claim scrubbing, submission preparation, tracking, payer follow-up, and documentation. Clinical decisions, coding decisions, and revenue cycle decisions remain with clinical, coding, and billing leadership; the Claims Processing Assistant supports the claims process and coordinates with billing, coding, and revenue cycle teams.
This structure keeps the role focused on claims data entry, claim scrubbing, claims submission, claims tracking, payer follow-up, and claims documentation.
The Claims Processing Assistant handles the claims work that gets claims out the door and paid — claims need to be entered accurately, scrubbed for errors, submitted to the right payer, and followed up on when they go unpaid. You'll enter claim data (into claims systems), scrub claims (for errors before submission), prepare and submit claims (to payers and clearinghouses), track claims (through adjudication), and follow up with payers on pending and unpaid claims.
Depending on the claims focus, you may support claims by:
Attention to detail, comfort with claims data, and reliability are essential — Claims Processing Assistants help healthcare organizations get paid for the care they deliver.
A Remote Claims Processing Assistant may follow a structured workflow across each claims cycle.
Depending on the employer's protocols, you may:
Claims processing work directly involves patient information, including names, medical record numbers, dates of service, diagnoses, procedure codes, payer IDs, and healthcare context. All claims work must comply with HIPAA privacy rules, organizational patient privacy policy, and claims documentation standards. Claims concerns requiring supervisor input, claims discrepancies, or issues affecting claims accuracy must be escalated following the employer's escalation protocol. Claims Processing Assistants must maintain HIPAA compliance and protect patient data across all claims work.
Experience or background in any of the following may be beneficial — but none are required:
A typical day may begin by logging into the claims system — reviewing the day's claim queue, pending submissions, and any payer follow-up tasks from the previous shift.
You'll review the claim queue — pulling up each claim and identifying what claims work needs to be done.
You'll enter claim data — typing claim data accurately into claims systems (patient details, dates of service, diagnoses, procedure codes, charges).
You'll scrub and fix edits — reviewing claims for errors before submission, resolving claim edits and warnings from scrubbers and clearinghouses.
You'll submit claims — preparing and submitting claims to payers and clearinghouses per payer-specific rules.
You'll track claim status — monitoring claims as they move through payer adjudication and checking payer portals for status updates.
You'll follow up with payers — calling or checking portals on pending and unpaid claims, resolving issues, and responding to payer requests for additional information.
You'll document and escalate — recording your claims activity accurately and routing any denials to the denial team or issues to the claims supervisor.
Between tasks, you'll support claim corrections, claim aging flags, and continuous improvement efforts.
Throughout the day, you'll work across multiple claims, EHR, and payer systems, document your claims activity accurately, support claims quality goals, and maintain HIPAA compliance across all claims work.
The role combines claims data entry, claim scrubbing, submission preparation, claims tracking, payer follow-up, documentation, and claims quality support.
