Medical Office Assistant Medical office assistants’ duties will range from overseeing patient records to filing insurance claims. The doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals will rely on them to keep the office in order while serving as the first point of contact with all patients. Students will learn how to represent their medical office exceptionally. Duties also include documenting physician orders, preparing patient treatment, updating patient information, scheduling appointments, etc.

Unit Clerk A unit clerk is responsible for maintaining records of doctors’ instructions, creating guidelines for treatment, monitoring schedules for doctors, scheduling patient appointments and organizing patients’ health records.

Electronic Transcription Because of the sensitive nature of medical details, there are strict rules and guidelines that cover how and when recordings must work. At the same time, audio and video files require a written transcription – something that is still difficult and in some cases impossible to automate. Students will gain the expertise necessary for producing accurate, high-quality transcripts based on audiovisual sources.

Medical Record Specialist (EMR) Doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals trust that the medical records they use throughout the day are accurate. To keep up with these records, they entrust medical record specialists who are qualified, experienced and dependable. At ERP College, students will sharpen their record-keeping and communication skills, as they earn their diplomas and prepare to enter their careers.
