A virtual health assistant is a type of non-voice medical assistant who supports medical practitioners administratively. Technology development has significantly altered how medical and healthcare services are provided. Administrative chores including monitoring medical records, making appointments, and answering calls can be handled by virtual assistants. The administrative duties that must be completed after hours may result in work overload, burnout, and exhaustion. Healthcare professionals can better balance their work and personal lives, provide better patient care, and experience less stress by giving non-clinical responsibilities to an assistant. Particularly when healthcare practitioners are dealing with a large number of patient care needs, these duties can be time-consuming and demanding. This is especially true if they are utilizing a part-time medical virtual assistant to assist with non-voice chores.
