AAMA CMA Practice Question

The most effective way a medical assistant can contribute to the team is by clearly and promptly communicating relevant observations and updates about the patient that may affect the treatment plan. This approach ensures that all team members are working from the latest information and that the care provided is cohesive and responsive to the patient's current condition. While understanding and adherence to the new protocols are necessary, these are prerequisite knowledge and skills expected of all team members. Attending team meetings is important, but actively contributing valuable patient-specific insights can be more directly impactful to patient care.
