I worked as a check out MA. What I did was basically did was set up the patient follow up or I had to put in a recall for a follow up of the schedule wasn’t available. I put in the patient referrals, filled the prescriptions of what my doctor wanted. Set up other appointments like at the vascular clinic if needed for the patient. Or I had to call UAB and speak with the transplant team to schedule appointments for the patients who had transplants. Took phone calls, transferred to the correct person. Sometimes covered for other MAs as needed when someone was out sick. I did vital signs, roomed the patient, went over current medications, if meds changed I corrected them in the system and reprinted the updated one, printed out the doctors last progress note.
