Frequently Asked Questions

A virtual dental assistant is a full-time remote professional who handles your practice's administrative tasks — insurance verification, billing, scheduling, treatment coordination, recall management, and patient communication. They work exclusively for your practice through Edge's managed platform, not a shared call center.

Yes. Edge Edu certification includes hands-on training modules for Dentrix, Eaglesoft, Open Dental, and Curve Dental. Your hire arrives ready to work in your specific system from day one.

With a VA agency, you're typically getting a shared or part-time freelancer with minimal training and BYOD equipment. With Edge, you're hiring a full-time, dedicated professional who works exclusively for you from a secured campus with enterprise equipment, HIPAA-grade VPN, and ongoing certification. They're your team member — Edge just provides the infrastructure.

Absolutely. Insurance verification and benefits breakdowns are core competencies of Edge dental professionals. They handle predeterminations, eligibility checks, CDT coding, and coordination of benefits — trained specifically on dental insurance workflows.

Edge provides a full replacement guarantee at $0 cost. If your hire isn't the right fit, Edge matches you with a new professional within 7 days on average.

Edge clients typically save 60-70% compared to hiring locally. The flat monthly fee includes salary, benefits, equipment, HIPAA compliance, and a dedicated Relationship Manager — no hidden costs.
