Medical Assistant

I have acquired and associate's degree from ABC College with special focus on anatomy and physiology. My experience in my previous work place as also instilled in me the knowledge of clinical treatment procedures, diagnostics, record keeping, accounting and insurance processing.

I had been working as a medical assistant at the XYZ Clinic for three years.

► Greeting visitors and patients and scheduling appointments.

► Making follow up calls to patients and handling telephone queries.

► Completing and submitting insurance forms.

► Taking and recording patients' histories and typing up patient charts.

► Creating and updating medical records.

► Assisting physicians during medical examinations.

► Ensuring that treatment rooms, equipment and instruments are kept in good order.

I was responsible for bookkeeping, billing and filling out insurance forms. In addition, I was also accountable for taking vitals, recording medical histories, updating and filing medical records, conducting diagnostic tests and developing X-rays.

The need to save both time and money is very high nowadays. Technology is an important part of a medical assistant's work as there is so much organization that is needed. Scheduling appointments, handling medical accounting activities and creating reports with accuracy and speed is not easy without support derived from technology.
