Virelia Health connects Patient Billing Support Representatives with remote opportunities across healthcare organizations — hospitals, health systems, medical practices, and revenue cycle teams.
We are seeking motivated Remote Patient Billing Support Representatives for entry-level and early-career opportunities supporting patient billing teams across the United States.
A Remote Patient Billing Support Representative supports patients with billing questions, explains statements and balances, sets up payment plans, and resolves non-clinical billing concerns for healthcare organizations. Working within the patient billing team's scope, the Patient Billing Support Representative is the friendly voice patients reach when they have a question about a bill — helping them understand what they owe, why they owe it, and how to pay it on a schedule that works for them.
No prior healthcare or billing experience is required. Paid training is provided. This role is well-suited to candidates who are patient, clear communicators, and comfortable helping people through financial conversations — including career changers, recent graduates, and first-time remote workers coming from banking, insurance, retail, or call center roles.
The specific healthcare organization, patient population, and scope of responsibilities will depend on the employer and assignment.
This opportunity may be suitable for professionals searching for remote patient billing jobs, work-from-home billing support representative, entry-level healthcare jobs no experience, remote patient financial support, or virtual billing support roles.
This is a true entry-level role. No prior healthcare, billing, or revenue cycle experience is required. Employers provide paid training on patient billing systems, statement explanation, payment plan setup, and HIPAA compliance. If you are patient, comfortable with numbers, and can learn new software, you're a great fit. Many of our Patient Billing Support Representatives come from banking, insurance, retail, hospitality, and call center roles.
Remote patient billing support runs on scheduled shifts and billing contact queues, giving your workday predictability and structure. Programs typically offer daytime weekday coverage, with many programs supporting evening, weekend, or extended-hours coverage because patients often contact billing teams outside traditional business hours. Many programs offer flexible 8-hour days, and some representatives work part-time schedules around school or family commitments. There are no clinical duties and no patient-facing physical demands. We offer both full-time and part-time positions. Discuss your preferred schedule during your interview.
As a Remote Patient Billing Support Representative, you may support patients across a range of billing and payment encounters.
Virtual patient billing support is a growing area of healthcare operations — driven by increased demand for patient financial support, expanded digital channels for patient billing work, and the recognition that dedicated patient billing support representatives improve patient satisfaction, reduce billing complaints, and improve patient financial experience.

This structure keeps the role focused on billing questions, payment plans, documentation, and patient financial support.

Patient billing support work directly involves patient information, including names, contact details, billing details, insurance data, and healthcare context. All billing support work must comply with HIPAA privacy rules, organizational patient privacy policy, and billing documentation standards.

Patient Billing Support Representatives must maintain HIPAA compliance and protect patient data across all virtual billing support 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 billing support system and phone platform — reviewing the day's billing contact queue, unanswered messages, and any pending follow-ups from previous shifts.
You'll answer incoming patient contacts — greeting patients warmly, verifying identity, and identifying what they need help with.
You'll explain billing details — walking patients through their statement, explaining the charges, what insurance covered, and why a balance remains.
You'll set up payment plans — helping patients choose an installment schedule that works for them, and walking them through setting up automatic payments if they prefer.
Between contacts, you'll connect patients to financial assistance programs, help them navigate the billing portal, and coordinate with revenue cycle teams on complex billing questions.
Throughout the day, you'll document every billing contact accurately, capture patient feedback, and maintain HIPAA compliance across all patient communication.
The role combines billing questions, statement explanation, payment plan setup, documentation, and patient financial support.
