Medical Support Assistance
30 open positions in this category
OPM series 0679. Support clinics and hospitals by scheduling patients, maintaining medical records, processing referrals, and handling other medical office tasks.
In the Department of Veterans Affairs, the dominant employer in 0679, the series is a hybrid Title 38 occupation, which means VA uses its own qualification standard and English-language proficiency requirement rather than the usual OPM standard.
Recent listings have included medical support assistants and advanced medical support assistants at Veterans Health Administration facilities, lead and supervisory medical support assistants, and positions in contact call centers, clinical contact centers, community care and health administration services.
Applying tip: each level’s experience requirement comes from VA’s qualification standard and is quoted in the announcement along with the knowledge, skills and abilities it rates, so address each one in the resume. Clinic-based positions are generally on site, and the announcement states the work arrangement. The remote versus telework guide explains how to read each announcement’s work arrangement.
