About Us:


At Sequence Health, we are redefining how healthcare organizations engage with patients by delivering high-quality triage and care navigation services that optimize outcomes and elevate the patient experience. Our team is driven by empathy, excellence, and a relentless commitment to service.


We’re proud of our legacy—since 2004, we've partnered with providers and health systems across the country to deliver smart, patient-first solutions that improve care delivery and operational performance.


Position Overview:


We are seeking a detail-oriented, tech-savvy, and compassionate Medical Assistant (MA) to join our Remote Triage Team. In this virtual care role, you will be the front line of non-clinical patient support—gathering key information, coordinating communication between patients and providers, and guiding patients toward appropriate next steps in their care journey.


The Remote Triage MA plays a vital role in ensuring timely follow-up and seamless communication in high-volume, multi-specialty settings. Your ability to remain calm, professional, and personable during patient interactions is essential to building trust and delivering excellent service.


Key Responsibilities:

  • Collect patient information including symptoms, demographics, and medication updates, and document these appropriately in the Electronic Medical Record (EMR).
  • Use pre-approved clinical triage protocols and scripts to guide patients through appropriate next steps (e.g., scheduling, provider messaging, or escalation).
  • Assist patients with navigating digital tools (e.g., patient portal), appointment follow-ups, and non-emergent health concerns.
  • Collaborate with LPNs, RNs, and providers by routing messages, submitting refill requests, and supporting documentation needs such as FMLA, ADA, or disability paperwork.
  • Maintain accuracy and compliance with HIPAA regulations and internal documentation standards.
  •  Any other duties nessessary to drive our values, fulfill our mission, and abide by our company values. 

Required Qualifications:

  • Completion of an accredited Medical Assistant program and active Medical Assistant certification (CMA, RMA, NCMA, or equivalent).
  • Minimum of 3–5 years' experience in a healthcare setting such as primary care, ambulatory care, or community health.
  • Prior telehealth, remote triage, or virtual care support experience preferred.
  • Strong communication skills with a calm, professional phone demeanor.
  • Excellent computer proficiency and experience working with EMRs (Epic, Cerner, Greenway, etc.).
  • Proven ability to manage multiple tasks, stay organized, and document interactions accurately and thoroughly.
  • Deep commitment to patient privacy, confidentiality, and empathetic service.


Remote Work Requirements:

  • A dedicated, HIPAA-compliant home workspace free from distractions.
  • Ability to securely house company-provided equipment.
  • High-speed internet access (minimum: download speed of 24 Mbps / upload speed of 4 Mbps).
  • Must be located within the United States; no visa sponsorship available.

Physical Requirements:

  • Ability to sit for long periods while handling calls and documentation.
  • Adequate hearing and vision for digital and telephonic communication.
  • Ability to wear a headset for extended periods.

What We Offer:

  • Competitive hourly pay with opportunities for growth and advancement.
  • Comprehensive benefits package including:
    • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
    • Flexible Spending Account (FSA)
    • Company-paid short- and long-term disability
    • Life and accident insurance
    • Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
    • Voluntary supplemental benefits for employees and their families
  • 401(k) retirement plan with company match
