Interviewer: A 34 % increase is projected; this is a fact or just hype?

As far as qualifications are concerned, these assistants must have done at least high school, after which, they can join a medical assistant training program offered by the technical and vocational institutes around the town. The more one learns the more one earns, so qualifying a short-term course can get you a job, but to earn higher, you need to obtain a degree-level qualification in the respective field.

Interviewer: Why should one choose medical assistants as a profession?
Expert: You tell me any profession, which can guarantee you a fix income within 6-12 months of training and that too with a long lasting career.
