What Does a Medical Technician Do Exactly?
As a medical technician your job is to provide both administrative and medical support to hospital staff. As such, your medical technician training (whether on the job or in school) will focus on a variety of areas ranging from administering treatment to processing insurance-related paperwork. The fact is, most hospitals are understaffed. Doctors want to provide the best care possible, but sometimes they can only consult with a patient for a few minutes before moving on to the next one. Working with nurses, administrators, doctors, and other medical technicians, you make sure that patients receive continuous quality care.
