This Medical Assistant role functions differently than a traditional hands-on clinic MA position. Approximately 85% of patient visits are conducted virtually, and the majority of daily work is focused on care coordination, patient communication, and medication workflow rather than in-person rooming or procedures. This role supports psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners in a high-volume outpatient behavioral health clinic.
What this role looks like day-to-day:
While the position is based in the clinic, direct patient contact is limited, and hands-on clinical procedures are minimal. When patients are seen in person, MAs typically obtain vitals only; the clinic does not perform injections, lab draws, or procedural assisting.
This position is best suited for MAs who enjoy care coordination, written and phone-based communication, detailed documentation, and working with behavioral health patients. Candidates seeking a procedure-heavy MA role may not find this to be a good fit.
We believe in creating a collaborative environment, while looking for innovative ways to improve. We offer competitive salaries and benefits packages to all eligible employees. No experience as a Medical Assistant or not been through an MA Program? Look no further we provide training and support to help you succeed.
