Job description

We are seeking a full-time, 40-hour Medical Assistant II to support our team onsite Monday through Friday, 8:30am to 5:00pm.
As true partners to our nurses and providers, our Medical Assistants get the opportunity to work autonomously to the top of their education/certification while also functioning as part of the collaborative team. They will rotate supporting our providers, as this kind of approach will provide the MAs with an opportunity to collaborate, develop skills, gain exposure to different styles, and expand clinical knowledge!
Responsibilities include:
Ensuring efficient patient flow through the office (anticipated visit volume will be 20 patients per day)
Assisting during office visits (chart preparation, rooming, examinations, procedures, and treatments as directed)
Performing clinically appropriate tasks related to patient panel management (phone calls, test results, prescription refill, coordination of care, etc.)
Maintaining neat, clean, and safe patient care areas.
Interacting with patients and their families in a professional, friendly manner consistent with their needs.
We do our best to keep all employees in their assigned practices and locations; however, you may also be asked to float to other departments in the WHP system when appropriate and needed during times of staffing shortages/other extenuating circumstances for cross-coverage purposes and to ensure adequate coverage and support.

Required:

• High School diploma/GED

• Either BLS or Annual Manikin training including CPR and AED after 6 months of hire

Strongly Preferred:

• Medical Assistant Course or diploma program or a minimum of 1-year professional experience, medical office setting strongly preferred.

• Epic experience strongly preferred.

• National MA Certification via AAMA, AMT, NHA, or NCCT
