Hire healthcare back-office and RCM teams in Latin America
Revenue cycle, prior authorization and patient intake are labor-bound processes that US providers cannot staff affordably, and the Spanish-speaking patient population makes bilingual capability a clinical service issue, not a nice-to-have. LATAM is the only nearshore region that delivers both on US hours.
Starting salary
$550/mo
Haiti, before burden
Time to hire
3-5 weeks; RCM specialists slower than intake roles
Best markets
Colombia and Mexico for bilingual patient contact, Costa Rica and Chile for regulated life-sciences work, Dominican Republic for growing BPO healthcare capacity
