What is a travel medical assistant?

Travel medical assistants are healthcare professionals who are hired to work on a temporary basis at various medical facilities, often in different cities or states. They perform the same duties as regular medical assistants—such as taking patient histories, assisting with exams, and handling administrative tasks—but their assignments typically last from a few weeks to several months. Travel medical assistants help fill staffing shortages and can gain experience in diverse work environments. This role is ideal for those who enjoy flexibility, traveling, and adapting to new clinical settings.

What are travel jobs for medical assistants?

As a travel medical assistant, you travel to various health care facilities, such as hospitals, doctor’s offices, and clinics, to provide any patient services they require. Duties include outpatient treatment, teaching other medical assistants, completing administrative tasks, or working unusual hours to help fill in current gaps among coverage. You may work around a city, state, or even the country as a whole, based on personal preferences and registration. Many travel medical assistants work with agencies to find steady work. Each job may last anywhere from a few days to several months as employers look for more full-time help. Some travel medical assistants also take seasonal positions.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a travel medical assistant?

To thrive as a Travel Medical Assistant, you need a strong background in clinical procedures, patient care, and medical terminology, typically supported by a medical assistant certification (CMA or RMA). Familiarity with electronic health record (EHR) systems, basic laboratory equipment, and scheduling software is often required. Excellent communication, adaptability, and organizational skills help you succeed in varied healthcare environments and quickly build rapport with new teams. These skills ensure high-quality patient care, smooth integration into different medical settings, and efficient support for healthcare providers while traveling.

What are some of the unique challenges faced by travel medical assistants compared to traditional medical assistants?

Travel Medical Assistants often need to quickly adapt to new clinical environments and different healthcare teams, which can be both exciting and challenging. They must be comfortable learning new protocols and electronic health record systems on short notice, and may work with diverse patient populations in various locations. Flexibility, strong communication skills, and the ability to build rapport quickly are essential, as assignments can vary in length and location. This dynamic role also offers the opportunity to gain broad experience and build a versatile skill set.

However, Travel Medical Assistants specifically work across multiple locations, often traveling to different healthcare facilities, whereas Medical Assistants typically work in a single clinic or hospital. Both roles require similar credentials but differ mainly in work environment and employment type.

Is being a travel medical assistant worth it?

Travel medical assistants perform healthcare tasks in various locations, often requiring certification and adaptability to different environments. The role offers opportunities for travel and diverse experiences but may involve irregular hours and physical demands. Whether it is worth it depends on personal career goals and preferences for mobility and variety.

Job description

Travel Medical Assistant

Bring preventive healthcare directly to patients where they live. In this nationwide travel Medical Assistant role, you'll complete in-home wellness visits based on patient coverage needs across different U.S. markets.

This is a great fit for a Medical Assistant who enjoys hands-on patient care, working independently, and being on the road instead of staying in one clinic all day.

The Opportunity

This is a full-time W2 role paying $31/hour with full benefits. All required equipment will be provided.

You'll visit patients in their homes to support preventive care visits, including Annual Wellness Visits, Medicare wellness visits, and Well-Child Visits. The focus is preventive care, care-gap support, patient relationships, and accurate documentation, not urgent care.

What You'll Do
  • Complete scheduled home-based wellness visits
  • Support Annual Wellness Visits, Medicare wellness visits, and Well-Child Visits
  • Gather and document patient information in an EMR/EHR system
  • Perform basic point-of-care support such as vitals, UAs, A1Cs, screenings, and questionnaires
  • Help patients feel comfortable, respected, and unrushed during visits
  • Manage a mobile field workflow while traveling between patient homes
What We're Looking For
  • 1+ year of Medical Assistant experience
  • Medical Assistant credential, certification, diploma, or equivalent qualification
  • Hands-on clinical Medical Assistant experience
  • Reliable vehicle and a valid driver's license
  • Comfortable working independently in patient homes
  • Comfortable with local, same-day travel as well as extended travel assignments
  • Comfortable with nationwide travel anywhere within the U.S. based on business and patient coverage needs
  • Able to travel frequently, potentially on a week-to-week basis
Travel Expectations

This is a nationwide Travel Medical Assistant role. Candidates may be required to travel anywhere within the U.S. based on business and patient coverage needs, potentially on a week-to-week basis.

There may be a county or state connected to the current opening, but this role is not limited to that county or state. The right fit is someone who is comfortable with frequent travel, changing coverage needs, and working independently in different markets.

Schedules are typically provided about 2 weeks in advance, including where you'll be going, when visits are scheduled, and how long visits are expected to last.

For local or same-day visits, you may use your own reliable vehicle, with eligible mileage reimbursed at $0.725 per mile.

For out-of-state or extended travel assignments, travel expenses are covered, including transportation, car rental when needed, flights when needed, hotel, and meals.

Compensation and Benefits
  • $31/hour
  • Full benefits
  • 401(k)
  • PTO and paid holidays
  • Mileage reimbursement at $0.725 per mile for eligible patient-to-patient travel
  • Paid travel time
  • Company-provided equipment
  • Covered travel expenses for extended or out-of-state assignments
Schedule
  • Full-time
  • MondayFriday
  • 8:00 AM 5:00 PM
  • Field-based role with home visits
Nice-to-Haves
  • Experience conducting Annual Wellness Visits
  • Experience conducting Well-Child Visits
  • Prior home visit, mobile care, field-based care, or community health experience
  • Experience documenting patient visits in an EMR/EHR system
What Success Looks Like

You'll be successful in this role if you can combine strong Medical Assistant fundamentals with the independence needed for mobile care. You'll help patients complete important preventive visits, support better health outcomes, and bring care to people who may not otherwise access it easily.

Equal Opportunity

Every application is reviewed against clear, job-related requirements. Candidates are evaluated based on relevant skills, certifications, experience, and role alignment.

Apply now and get a response within 24 hours.
