Medical Receptionist Program
Medical receptionists, or medical secretaries, play vital roles in the organized delivery of the healthcare team in a physician’s office, hospital, or clinic. If you’re interested in becoming a medical receptionist or secretary, Institute of Technology’s Medical Receptionist training in Salem can help.
During our Medical Receptionist program, patient charts, confidentiality issues, appointment scheduling, insurance records coding, and management of patient records are discussed in both a classroom/lab and hands-on environment.
Areas of study in the Medical Receptionist program:
- ICD9 coding
- Medical computer applications
- Medical office procedures
- Medical terminology
Your medical secretary training can prepare you for a more specialized area of administrative assisting. In addition to medical coding and billing, your duties may include recording medical histories, transcribing dictation, and assisting physicians with correspondence. You may also be in charge of ordering supplies and arranging hospital care for patients. IOT’s coursework in medical computer applications will be valuable to you as an entry-level medical receptionist, as the work you do will likely support systems or departments.
