About The Position

Saint Alphonsus Health System is hiring an organized, efficient Medical Assistant for its Pain Management and Spine clinic at Boise Regional Medical Center. The role supports a new physician in a fast-paced, high-volume clinic. The Pain and Spine programs take a whole-person approach, combining services such as physical therapy, injections, nutrition, exercise, relaxation, stress management, and biofeedback to help patients actively manage pain and achieve the best possible outcomes. The Spine Care Center provides individualized care for cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine conditions, with an emphasis on effective results and minimal intervention. In addition to typical Medical Assistant duties, this position supports clinical and administrative workflows, including medical history collection, urine toxicology screening, patient education, chart preparation, referral review, prior authorizations, procedure scheduling, and responses to patient telephone calls and MyChart messages. The Medical Assistant will also cross-train with front office staff. Because the clinic is located in a hospital, the role involves more time on one's feet than a typical clinic environment. The position is scheduled for 40 hours per week across four 10-hour days, Monday through Thursday, with Fridays off; hours are approximately 6:45 a.m. to 5:15 p.m. The clinic is located at 1055 N. Curtis Road, Boise, Idaho 83706, in the South Tower of Boise Regional Medical Center. The ideal candidate is compassionate, self-motivated, organized, efficient, dependable, and a team player, with an interest in spine and nerve care and helping patients with challenging diagnoses.
