Medical Assistant Schools in Texas

Medical assistant schools in Texas offer one and two-year training programs for students pursuing a career as a medical assistant. The medical assistant career is fairly new to the healthcare system in comparison to nursing and other medical-related jobs. The medical assistant position is a hybrid job that combines both patient care and medical office duties. A medical assistant typically works under the direct supervision of a licensed registered nurse (RN), nurse practitioner or medical doctor. Most programs offer a certificate upon graduation and successful completion of all courses. Common classes taken include pharmacology, medical terminology, medical programs and software, medical billing and insurance, and diagnostic procedures.
