Medical Assisting

Medical Assistants (MAs) perform both administrative and clinical duties, including maintaining patient records, coding insurance forms, arranging hospital admissions and laboratory services, taking medical histories, collecting and preparing laboratory specimens, and taking vital signs.

You’ll complete a 200-hour clinical internship in a real-world medical setting, such as a doctor’s office or ambulatory care center to prepare for this in-demand career.

This program is eligible for Care Forward Colorado – meaning zero-cost to you! Learn more.
