Medical Assistant - Omaha - $2,500 sign-on bonus!

Overall Purpose Are you a compassionate, mission-driven medical assistant who wants to make a lasting difference for patients with complex medical needs? As a Medical Assistant at P3 Health Partners, you'll be a vital member of an interdisciplinary team that helps primary care physicians deliver exceptional, value-based care to the patients who need it most. This is not a typical, back-to-back clinic job. Our clinic sees a small number of patients each day, and some days none come in at all. When patients are scheduled, you'll support comprehensive geriatric assessments in the office or by telemedicine: obtaining vital signs, administering geriatric assessment tools and sharing the results with the provider. On other days, you'll do the work that keeps patients healthy between visits: finding patients who are due for screenings and tests, getting their records, reaching out to them, and keeping our data accurate. If you want a fast-paced floor with constant rooming and procedures, this probably isn't the role for you. If you like a calm, predictable day, enjoy solving puzzles in a chart, and want to build skills in quality and population health, we'd love to talk.
