Receptionist Jobs in Oregon

In the medical administration industry, a Receptionist plays a vital role in providing administrative support, ensuring efficient operation within the medical facility. They perform various tasks such as scheduling patient appointments, managing patient records, handling incoming calls, and greeting patients as they arrive. Receptionists also handle billing, answer patient inquiries, and work closely with healthcare professionals to ensure that the office runs smoothly.

Important skills for a Medical Receptionist include excellent communication and organizational abilities, familiarity with medical terminologies, a friendly demeanor, and proficiency in using computer systems. A high school diploma is typically required, but certification in medical administration, such as a Certified Medical Administrative Assistant (CMAA) or a Certified Medical Receptionist (CMR) certification, can enhance job prospects. Before becoming a Receptionist, an individual might have roles such as an Administrative Assistant, Customer Service Representative, or Office Clerk.
