Medical Assistant
About The Position
NuvoAir Medical is a technology-enabled pulmonary care organization that is focused on improving outcomes for patients with chronic respiratory diseases such as COPD, asthma, sleep apnea, and other complex pulmonary conditions. Our relationship-based model combines remote patient monitoring and proactive clinical engagement to keep patients healthier and out of the hospital. Complex conditions like COPD are incredibly challenging to manage. People who are already struggling with isolation and the burden of these conditions become increasingly frustrated and disengaged, eventually falling through the cracks and landing in the ER. This cycle perpetuates poor health outcomes and excessive medical costs. At NuvoAir, we believe people deserve a better healthcare experience. Our team embraces the challenges that others canât or wonât - by integrating our clinical team with technology, NuvoAir creates a highly empathetic and personalized experience for each patient. A Medical Assistant (MA) is a vital member of our NuvoAir healthcare team, responsible for providing administrative and clinical support in the virtual medical setting. This person will encompass a combination of administrative and clinical tasks that will impact our entire business and how we work with our patients by upholding our company core value, âPatient Obsessedâ.
