    How Virtual Assistants are Solving the Medical Industry’s Biggest Bottlenecks with Ben Barron

    The healthcare industry is facing a quiet crisis: declining reimbursement rates, rising burnout, and a clinical model that hasn’t evolved in 40 years. In this episode of the Will Power Podcast, Ben Barron sits down with Will Humphreys, founder of Virtual Rockstar, to pull back the curtain on the operational shifts happening inside successful medical practices. Will shares his journey from a catastrophic rock-climbing accident that broke 21 bones to becoming a physical therapy practice owner and, eventually, a leader in the offshore staffing space. They discuss why the "mirror fogging" method of hiring is killing clinics, why physical therapists struggle with the business of medicine, and how virtual assistants (VAs) are becoming the secret weapon for practices to reclaim their time and profitability. Key Takeaways: The "Profit vs. Purpose" Myth: Why financial success is actually the fuel that allows healthcare providers to fulfill their mission, not a "necessary evil."The Virtual Revolution: How clinics are using offshore talent for front-desk support, insurance verification, and billing to solve the turnover crisis.The Leadership Gap: Why technical competence as a clinician doesn’t equal business acumen—and how to bridge that gap through coaching.The Future of Care: Moving away from the "2–3 times a week" linear treatment model to reach more patients without burning out staff.Recruiting in a Scarcity Market: Shifting from "hiring anyone with a pulse" to building a culture-first recruitment engine.Send us a text Virtual Rockstars specialize in helping support or replace all non-clinical roles.
