Hiring a medical administrative assistant in Pennsylvania
A medical administrative assistant supports the office manager and providers with the non-clinical work that keeps a practice running - vendor coordination, supplies, credentialing reminders, HR paperwork, meeting coordination, and internal communications. Different from a VMA, which is patient-facing.
Pennsylvania has over 50,000 active physicians, with hubs in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and the Lehigh Valley. Mix of academic and independent practice. Demand spans family medicine, internal medicine, behavioral health, and orthopedics.
