Tricks and tips to be a successful medical assistant…. Medical assistant series

[@shae0114]

I've learned more in 6 months as a MA than I did as a CNA 1&2 in 6 years at the job I've been blessed to work at. I wish I had more insight before I started college! CMA/RMA is def the way to go if you want to continue in healthcare!!

[@sissysissy7175]

Finishing my externship next week at a urgent care and its very busy. You are correct medical assistant stays busy. To triage, to charting, to disinfectant rooms after patient is gone. Swaps and much more. Thank you for this video. Absolutely spot on.

I am just starting my CMA journey and thank you for this video on clarity in just starting and not having the pressure in knowing everything. You are amazing and thank you again!

[@roberpic]

One of the best confidence building MA videos I've seen.

[@aaliyahzhane4363]

Thank you so much that mean a lot

[@halesbales529]

I am a new medical assistant currently in my extern! I would love it if someone did a video on how to get familiar with insurance , prior auths! I am struggling with this. 😅

[@thewritecma]

Are you currently working? As a new MA alot of that learning comes with time. Taking notes and studying. Insurances change all the time, but once you start you will be able to learn whats next and keep going. Alot of times when you call for prior auth. info they walk you through whats needed and give you the information on where to send everything. In my bio I have a begginers guide ebook on Medical Assisting, Duties, skills to learn after finishing school, certification information, dealing with self doubt, and so much more. I even created and included a guided journal. The info is on my channel bio. Good luck with everything!

[@janeisawalker6079]

Thank you so much for these tips! I just started school last week for MA, and I'm so excited to start this journey in the medical field.

[@aaliyahzhane4363]

Thank you …good luck

[@Alejandra.herrera1996]

This is all true girl and I have been a Medical assistant for a year. Every doctor its different and you work how they like things. Its good to be observant and watch how they like things so that the clinic its run efficiently. If providers are happy then MAs are happy as well as the patients. As a side not I literally had to work with a doctor who can bearly see and I had to write in big letters or else he be like why are you writing little. I’m here like I am writing normal. But ok I’ll try with big letters and he seem happy with it. Lol 😂

[@aaliyahzhane4363]

Yes, I have worked with doctors that don’t even see the ma it’s like your invisible and then I’ve worked with some that don’t respect woman I could go on and on but as long as you do your job and make it easy for them they will have no choice but the respect you and your start to build a bond with your doctor

[@dianaportillo6959]

I start working on a clinic this Monday this is so helpful ❤❤thank u for this video

[@Lynker]

Great video, thank you! I'm an LPN, about to work in a new setting of a doctor's office. MAs are the life of doctor's offices, thank you for what you do! I'll be the first and only nurse at this practice, so nonetheless am I a little nervous. I held a position in a pediatrics office for a month, but got let go. I'm hoping I do well at this new job.

Thank you and Congratulations 🎊 on your new position you will do great it’s okay you got let go sometime rejection is protection and now you have a better opportunity

[@Lynker]

@@aaliyahzhane4363 Rejection is protection!!! I love that so much! Thank you for your kinds words. :)

[@LadybugT75]

Thank you so much!!! I took notes on all of this 👍 This was very informative and I truly believe this is going to help me with a lot of stuff once I do get started. I start my classes this Friday. I am so excited but also a little nervous. I am nervous bc I am 49 yrs old and as much as I believe that it's never too late to further a persons education bc I have been a certified nursing assistant, a caregiver, a certified psychiatric nursing assistant, and now will become a certified clinical medical assistant. I have always been very good at taking test and learning new things and retaining new information... but now that I am older I have noticed that my memory is nowhere near what it used to be and that I forget a lot of stuff now and I am going through menopause so I forget a lot of stuff and I have brain fog so just not as sharp with things as I used to be. I am about to get the bioidentical hormone replacement therapy on thursday and I know once I do that, my mind and memory will get back to normal bc all the things I am lacking I will have back in my system, but it will take it about 4 weeks to get back to normal so my first 4 wks are going to be straight hell. My school is only 4 months. The 1st 2 months are learning then month 3 is nothing but study and prepare for the test all month long with study tests. Then month 4 is our clinicals in which we have to do 80 hrs so we can either do 2 wks full time or 4 wks part time then we graduate... 👩‍🎓 pray that I do well! I have always wanted to do something like this!!!! I just pray my mind will retain the first 4 weeks worth. 🙏🙏🙏
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO!!!!

[@bethloomis8961]

As a Boomer, I get SO angry when folks talk about younger workers being slackers or not having a good attitude toward work. Age is irrelevant when comes to one's work ethics, and this video shows it.

[@aaliyahzhane4363]

Thank you much, yes I hate that because I’m young and I feel like some feel as tho just because your young you will not be satisfied with you over all experience and that’s not tru at all

Great video! What would you say when asked if you’re new? I’m a new medical assistant and I’ve already sent out a few applications and i would like to be ready for the moment when I’m asked that question.

[@aaliyahzhane4363]

I be been doing ma work for about 2 years not but I’ve always been in the medical field in some way if that make since. You are new but that doesn’t mean anything let them know yes I’m new but I have old techniques and new techniques that I can bring to the practice my knowledge is fresh and I am ready to put it to use. Good luck on you journey

[@xxpeace7896]

Is there a difference between the medical assistant diploma obtained at the community college and that obtained in an accelerated program???

[@aaliyahzhane4363]

Personally me I went to a accelerated program and I loved it. I got so much hands on so I would prefer that and it’s faster I finished in 15 months. I cannot really speak on the community college but I think both is great any way you further your education is a great experience and step forward

Honestly depends on where you live , what type of practice you work for , and if it’s a private owned practice… I’ll be touching on that subject video coming soon stay tuned

@@aaliyahzhane4363 do you get paid more for having an associates degree?
