Medical Office Assistant Courses

WHY MEDICAL OFFICE ASSISTANT

Medical office assistants are responsible for efficient operation of medical offices, clinics, hospitals and outpatient care centers. The growth of the aging baby-boom population will continue to spur demand for preventive medical services, which are often provided by physicians. As their practices expand, physicians will hire more Medical Office Assistants to perform routine administrative work allowing physicians to see more patients.

In addition, an increasing number of group practices, clinics, and other healthcare facilities need support workers, particularly Medical Office Assistants to perform administrative duties such as greeting patients, taking patients’ vital signs, compiling medical charts, performing insurance claim processing, medical coding and billing, medical records collections, and other front office managerial duties.

FUTURE OF MEDICAL OFFICE ASSISTANT

The demand for Medical Office Assistants is further expected to increase in the decade as a result of an anticipated increase in the number of clinics, health group practices, and other healthcare facilities that will need a large number of support personnel, especially those who are flexible and can handle medical administrative duties both effectively and efficiently.
