| Welcome
to BCC's Medical Assistant program website. Medical
assisting is among the most varied and flexible of the allied health
professions. By studying medical assisting procedures, clinical
procedure, and human biology, students learn to prepare patients
for examinations and to assist physicians. Medical assistants also
perform routine diagnostic procedures and sophisticated techniques
using high-tech medical equipment. |
| In addition, having acquired knowledge of
medical terminology, medical correspondence, medical law,
medical office management, and the skill of keyboarding, graduates
are prepared to conduct the business and administrative duties
of a private medical practice, group practice, or clinic. |
