Medical Assistant Resume Example made with Resume Star

Clinics hire medical assistants who can work both the back office and the front desk. Show your certification, the clinical tasks you do on your own, and the office systems you know.

Tips for a medical assistant resume

  • Put your certification first. CMA (AAMA), RMA, CCMA or NCMA, plus BLS/CPR and any phlebotomy certification.
  • List clinical skills. Vital signs, injections and immunizations, phlebotomy, EKGs, wound care and preparing patients for exams.
  • Show front office skills. Scheduling, check-in, insurance verification, prior authorizations and billing codes.
  • Name your EHR system. Epic, athenahealth, eClinicalWorks or NextGen, so a clinic knows you need little training.
  • Use numbers. Patients roomed per day, providers you support and the type of practice: family medicine, pediatrics or specialty.
