Medical Assistant
CCMA
A bigger curriculum, the identical compliance machinery.
Medical assistants work both the clinical and front-office sides of outpatient care, with a standard ~160-hour supervised externship and a psychomotor competency set. The curriculum is larger than CNA, but the compliance backbone — skills checklist, externship hours, preceptor sign-off — is exactly the same.
