West Hartford, Connecticut, United States American Family Care Full time $20 - $23


Make an impact—front desk to triage

At American Family Care, our Medical Assistants are the heartbeat of the clinic — blending clinical skill, patient service, and front-desk/insurance verification expertise to keep our centers running smoothly. Whether you're triaging a patient, drawing blood, or ensuring accurate insurance eligibility, you'll play a key role in delivering care and ensuring our services are paid correctly.

If you thrive in a fast-paced urgent care or medical office setting, adapt quickly, and pride yourself on both accuracy and compassion, we want you here.   What you'll do
  • Clinical Care: Greet and triage patients, collect vitals/histories, perform venipuncture and CLIA-waived point-of-care testing (COVID, flu, strep, glucose, A1C, UA, etc.), assist with minor procedures, wound care, EKGs, and nebulizer therapy.
  • Insurance Verification & Front Desk: Register patients, verify insurance eligibility, determine financial responsibility, collect co-pays, reconcile payment logs, and maintain EMR accuracy.
  • Patient Service: Educate patients on both clinical procedures and financial expectations, provide clear discharge instructions, and de-escalate concerns with empathy and professionalism.
  • Team & Compliance: Participate in daily huddles, maintain compliance logs (crash cart, fridge temps, etc.), support infection-control and HIPAA standards.
  What We're Looking For
  • Completion of an accredited Medical Assistant program.
  • Active national MA certification (CMA, RMA, CCMA, or equivalent) at hire.
  • At least 1+ year of experience with insurance verification and patient registration required.
  • Current Basic Life Support (BLS) certification (or ability to obtain before starting).
  • Urgent care or emergency room experience highly valued.
  • EMR proficiency (Experity preferred); comfort with payer portals (e.g., Waystar).
  • Proven venipuncture and specimen collection skills.
  Additional requirements
  • Must successfully pass a drug screen and criminal background check as a condition of employment.
  • Full availability including ability to work evenings/weekends and float to nearby centers as needed.
Why You'll Love Working Here
  • Competitive pay and benefits package.
  • Opportunities for professional growth and cross-training.
  • Collaborative, supportive, patient-first team culture.
  • Make an impact by delivering The Right Care. Right Now.
Work environment Fast-paced urgent care with frequent role-switching; prolonged standing/walking; routine exposure to blood and body fluids (strict PPE adherence); occasional lifting up to 25–30 lbs; weekend/evening shifts and float coverage as needed.
