As positions continually evolve, implementing and maintaining accurate job descriptions continue to be the safest way for employers to have documentation that supports employment decisions and avoids legal issues and complications related to hiring, training and terminating staff. It is also important for a job description to clearly communicate what the organization wishes to achieve and how the employee helps fulfill those goals.
The third edition of MGMA's Job Description Manual for Medical Practices is easy to use and comes with customizable job descriptions designed exclusively for medical practice administrators and managers. Covering 100 of today's top medical practice positions, this manual helps practice administrators and managers set expectations, skills, procedures and policies for managing operational, financial and risk issues, as well as personnel, disaster planning and exposure control.
