CCMA is a Certified Clinical Medical Assistant. This certification allows you to work in a doctor's office, health clinics, surgical facilities and hospitals as a Medical Assistant. Job responsibilities include (but are not limited to) checking patients in, taking vital signs, administering injections, dispensing medications, blood draws, performing and reporting point of care testing, EKGs, assisting with procedures, health records, patient education and anything else that the provider delegates. This is not a complete list, but gives you a pretty good idea.
What it doesn't give you: RN license, CNA license, LPN license.
CPT is a Phlebotomy technician certification. This allows you to perform blood draws in various locations, without a CCMA.
CPTs alone cannot perform the duties of a medical assistant if this is the only certification held.
The other two are EKG and CMAA. EKG techs can perform EKGs, stress tests, holter and cardiac event monitors, telemetry, take vitals, work in cardiac testing facilities and hospitals. CMAA is a medical administrative assistant and primarily focuses on front office/billing duties.
This is the cool part! The sky is the limit. Anywhere that accepts the role of Medical Assistant, you can work! You can work in Pediatrics all the way to Geriatrics, from Podiatry to Neurology!
As reported by ZipRecruiter: As of Aug 3, 2023, the average pay in TN for:
CCMA $17.61, range of $15.95-$22 with highs of $23.12.
Certified Phlebotomist $19.55, range of $16.73-$22.69 with highs of $41.39
Certified EKG Tech $20.96, range of $15.96-26.63 with highs of $39.63
CMAA $16.92, range of $14.95-$19.62 with highs of $24.22
Truly it is based on work ethic, location and the specialty you're in!
You can start work as soon as you finish the class! Some offices will allow you to begin training before you receive your certification! I truly recommend waiting until you pass your exams though. The exams are taken the week after class ends. So still very soon after completion!
No! You can take the ones you want. We recommend minimally that you take CPT and CCMA. You have up to 5 years to take any of the exams.
We love our students, so feel free to visit by requesting an appointment
