职业生涯
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, “Employment of medical assistants is projected to grow 19 percent from 2019 to 2029, much faster than the average for all occupations. The growth of the aging baby-boom population will continue to increase the demand for preventive medical services, which are often provided by physicians. 结果是, physicians will hire more assistants to perform routine administrative and clinical duties, allowing the physicians to see more patients.”
