QUICKEST ways to become a Medical Assistant in 2024

[@diva146]

I live in Missouri and if you live in this state it’s very easy to become a medical assistant. You don’t need schooling or anything you can simply to go BJC MERCY or SSM and get a job. I am a CMA and to be honest I don’t encourage being a medical assistant if you want to be a nurse you need to be in the hospital. You are going to see way more in the hospital than in a clinic. Also medical assistants aren’t paid well in my opinion you can make more as a PCT as they have access to shift differentials and ovetime.

I tell everyone to start in Family/Internal Medicine since it’s more Broad.

@@Accuracy_96 Absolutely! That was my first job in the medical field as well☺️

In texas as long as you speak spanish and attended medical assistant school you almost guaranteed to get hired

[@soleiljolie70]

Florida as well

Both of those states are majority hispanic.

[@career5690]

As of June 2023, Hispanics make up 40.2% of Texas' population, while non-Hispanic whites make up 39.8%. This means that Hispanics have been the largest population group in Texas since at least July 2022, though the switch likely happened in late 2021.

You’re welcome! ❤

Currently saving for CMA classes along with Medical Interpreter (I'm already Bilingual). I've also worked 10+ years as a receptionist at a Pedi Uro office and Hospital MedRecs Dept. I'm hoping all my skills will help me get a job as a Pedi CMA with Interpretation and EMR knowledge next year after getting my certifications.

I went to a unitech college and the teachers were not good

[@RememberingUsQ]

I’m sure this is definitely depending on what area/teachers are at your school! Unfortunately it all depends on who is teaching you!

I'm afraid to FIL it

About adult schools, I am not a resident😢 what do I do

[@RememberingUsQ]

I’m not positive about the track to take if you are not a resident! I would definitely look into adult schools in the area and call to inquire on the possibilities!

[@bridgetdominguez5008]

How much do MA actually make ? Seems like they are very underpaid from what I’ve heard .

[@Amirjas98]

I want to know the course fees of certified medical assistance

[@RememberingUsQ]

My unitek college was around 16K for the tuition! Definitely not worth it and I would recommend going to an adult school if you have one near you! Our adult school’s tuition was around 2K!
