About the job

Job Summary

Under the supervision of medical staff, performs routine clinical and administrative duties in support of the assigned area or office. If you’re looking for a role where you can make a real impact on patients’ day-to-day care, without nights, weekends, or rotating shifts - this could be a great fit.

Job Description

What You'll Do

  • As an MA II on our Orthopedics team, you’ll play a key role in keeping visits running smoothly while supporting both patients and providers.

Clinical Responsibilities

  • Assists with collecting statistics and prepares patient for visit and medical staff
  • Prepare patients for visits and assists providers during examinations
  • Assists with basic diagnostic procedures and performs specimen collection as required
  • Communicates observed changes in patient condition to medical staff for assessment

Administrative & Support Duties

  • Documents patient care given
  • Performs duties as assigned, including filing, reception, scheduling, scribing, data entry, prior authorization, and patient registration
  • Maintains equipment and medical supplies, including reordering, stocking, cleaning, and troubleshooting
  • Maintains examination areas

What We're Looking For

  • Previous Work Experience: Work experience as a Medical Assistant.
  • Certification: Certified by an accredited Medical Assistant program.
  • Education: Possession of an associate degree in Medical Assisting from an accredited school.
  • Strong communication skills and attention to detail
  • Ability to balance clinical and administrative responsibilities
  • A team-focused mindset with a patient-first approach

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Consistent daytime schedule - 40 hours per week, 8:00–4:30, no nights or weekends
  • Orthopedic specialty experience - build valuable, in-demand skills in a focused clinical setting
  • Variety without chaos - split time between 15 Enterprise Drive (Augusta) and 107 First Park (Oakland)
  • Predictable workflow with patients who are typically scheduled and follow a clear plan of care
  • Team-based environment where collaboration between providers and support staff is key
  • A great option for candidates seeking work–life balance without stepping away from meaningful clinical work

Why MaineGeneral ?

At MaineGeneral, you're not just filling visits; you're part of a mission-driven health system that believes care is better when it's intentional.
