is there a bachelors degree or something to follow?
...............................................................................
Not in medical assisting--the MA job is what it is--there is no next stage so to speak, unless you try to go into MA teaching. You can get a bachelors certainly, but it would be branching out into a different field in health care--just not medical assisting--there are many many different fields in health care.

you actually have a LOT of options.
nursing
medical technology/clinical laboratory science
pre-med (to become an MD)
health information management
afterwards you could continue to graduate school in
nursing
molecular diagnostic science or microbiology
medical admin
medical science (physician assistant-they can treat and diagnose patients in most states)
you could also go on to medical school
there are MANY more options as well
I have an associates degree in medical assistanting, what is next for education? is there a bachelors or somet?
