Medical Office Management Course Description
As the need for health services increases, so the need for effective medical office and health management becomes greater. Assistants who provide this crucial function are an important part of this service and subsequently need to prepare themselves well for providing a professional service.
In many instances the people who manage the medical office are the “frontline” for handling sick or very ill patients. At the same time they are expected to manage the office as efficiently as possible on a day-to-day basis.
These responsibilities and duties have resulted in a dire need for certain essential skills which empower the medical office manager to fulfil daily work demands satisfactorily.
This course identifies and explains to the prospective medical office and health manager these critical skills.
