Program Description
A well-run and efficient office within a medical practice, clinic or other health care setting is vital to the success of the practice and to the quality of health care it provides. As an Office Administration graduate in the health care sector, students will be equipped with the organizational and clinical support skills to ensure patients receive the highest quality of care and service.
Faculty in the Office Administration – Health Services program are experienced individuals who guide students through industry-related training that will not only teach them specialized skills required to be part of a health care team but also core competencies transferable across all industries.
The Office Administration – Health Services program will help students develop essential health care support skills such as:
- Medical terminology
- Anatomy for health administration
- Medical transcription
- Medical office procedures
- Electronic health record management
- Computerized OHIP billing
- Diagnostic and lab procedures
A two-day-per-week work placement at some of Toronto’s prestigious hospitals and health care clinics will allow students to put those skills to use in real-life experiences before they graduate.
