Healthcare Administrative Assistant Jobs in Burlingame, CA

A Healthcare Administrative Assistant is a vital member of health care administration, providing crucial support to healthcare management teams. Their tasks entail organizing medical records, scheduling appointments, managing patient admissions and discharges, and assisting with billing.
