Job Overview - Please provide a cover letter to let us know why you would be a good fit for this position.
The Clinical Administrative and Patient Care Assistant (CAPCA) is a full-time hourly employee whose principal objective is to assist the practice with patient care from the beginning of a patient encounter to the end.
The CAPCA must first and foremost be a team player, knowing that the goal is to provide high quality patient care through supporting the medical team.
Good people skills are a must!
This job requires assisting with both HIPAA and OSHA Compliance by performing tasks that keep the practice in line with HIPAA & OSHA guidelines, the bloodborne pathogens standard and universal precautions, as well as the task of occasionally cleaning in between patients to ensure OSHA compliance which also includes sanitizing and sterilizing patient care rooms and instruments.
During patient care hours, the job primarily includes managing patient flow. This task involves the use of the iPAD to take pictures of patients before and after ALA-PDT (blue light therapy) as well as putting patients in and out of the blue light, reviewing protocols and handouts with patients after the provider has seen them, occasionally scribing for the providers.
The job also requires the ability to manage inventory and requesting order of critical supplies and watching for expired inventory with PA/Office Manager and/or Medical Assistant guidance but can also include collecting payments, answering phones, scheduling patients in conjunction with the Clinical Administrator, who is remotely stationed.
The CAPCA understands that their role overlaps somewhat with that of a front desk receptionist as well as a Medical Assistant/Scribe, which is what makes the CAPCA an integral part of the team in a small practice.
The CAPCA understands that Professional Dermatology Care's overarching mission is to save lives, prevent disfiguring surgery and build patient relationships that last a lifetime.
