Summary
In honor of Autism Awareness Month, this episode of the AAMA Podcast takes a deeper look at what it truly means to support autistic patients—not only through clinical care, but through compassion, understanding, and lived experience.
We’re joined by Michele Hinman, CMA (AAMA), whose career spans behavioral health, pediatrics, and medication prior authorizations. Beyond her clinical expertise, Hinman offers a powerful dual perspective as both a medical assistant and a parent of an autistic child.
Together, we explore how medical assistants can better connect with autistic patients and their families, the importance of empathy in care delivery, and the lessons learned when professional knowledge meets personal experience.
Expand your knowledge in recognition of Autism Awareness Month with a special offer in the AAMA e-Learning Center. The CEU self-study course "Autism: Considerations for Health Care Professionals" is available at a discounted rate for the month of April—designed specifically to strengthen your understanding of autism, enhance patient interactions, and support your continued professional growth.
