Clinic Administrator

Clinic administrators are the behind-the-scenes champions of a medical practice, doctor’s clinic or community health centre. They maintain patient records, organise laboratory tests, process medicare and NDIS rebates, and support the staff on the front desk.

As a clinic administrator your day will be super-busy. You could be adding the results of an ultra-sound to a patient’s file, relieving the medical receptionist during their lunch break, chasing up an overdue account, or answering an email enquiry from a new patient.
