A: We track VA work hours with time tracking software, which ensures that they are logging in and out of their work device in a timely manner and the hours cannot be edited without admin approval. If needed, we can enable the screen capture feature to guarantee that your VAs are on task.
We also highly encourage our clients to audit their VAs periodically to verify that they are producing the expected results for their role. Our VAs send out daily “end of day” reports with the total number of hours worked and breaks taken, plus a summary of their task accomplishments and status report of their ongoing tasks.
A: When hiring a virtual assistant, you’ll want to find a company that provides ample support so you can truly outsource efficiently. Although virtual healthcare assistants do require training like any in-office employee, working with a VA provider that offers IT support, daily check-ins & time tracking software makes all the difference.
