Clinical Medical Assistant Career 'Career Insights and Advantages'
YOU CHOSE A CAREER WITH HIGH JOB
GROWTH Taking an initial glance at a career in
Medical Assisting shows that Medical Assistants were high on the
list of Occupations with the most job growth, 2014 and projected
to 2024 according to the BLS Bureau of Labor Statistics. This
evaluation put out by the BLS provides an interesting look into
job careers for those still deciding which one to go with. Here
are a few additional interesting statistical report put out by
the AAMA (American Association of Medical Assistants). According
to their report, The Pacific region, which is the one you are in
when you sign up for courses at NIU College, showed the highest
earnings for full-time current CMAs and AMA's with averages of
$34,652 annually. Also, employment benefits show that roughly 94
percent of all full-time medical assistants receive some form of
benefits package from their employer. When you successfully
complete your MA course you will receive a Diploma in Medical
Assisting from NIU College and will be qualify to take the
national test (NCCT). In addition, you are ready and able to
take advantage of the benefits of your career. If you
have considered or are considering a career in the medical field
you most likely understand the basics of the field and what it
includes, such as: medical assistant, clinical medical assistant
(back office medical work), administrative medical assistant
(front office medical work), and more.
CERTIFIED COURSES It is important to
note that those with Certifications are the most highly sought
according to the AAMA. Employers often are not just paying
higher wages for the CMA & AMA, they are also increasingly
demanding that their medical assistants have a CMA and AMA
credential. This is due in part to the overwhelming requests
filed by employers for Certification verifications. This one is
not hard to understand the reason for, it's all about one thing,
pressure placed on employers, ie; Doctors’ offices, Hospitals,
Emergency care providers, etc., for certification mandates due
to potential malpractice suits. According to the AAMA, using the
combination of both full- and part-time medical assistant
respondents, 54 percent work in a single specialty practice,
while 43 percent work in a multi-specialty setting.

HIGH DEMAND AND EXPANSION The demand for medical assistants is increasing
the need for expansion in studies, graduates and employees, so
the industry is open and far less competitive than many others
where students take 4 year college courses in industry
categories that are so competitive it takes the graduates years
and years to pay off student loans on jobs they have a hard time
getting. While employers are seeking and recruiting skilled
health professionals because of their uniquely diverse clinical
and administrative training, you won't be spending hundreds of
thousands of dollars paying off loans before you start earning a
salary.
NIU College preparation The programs at NIU
College involve a multitude of education and training including,
classroom theory, laboratory procedures, learning Medisoft in
