Above-average spelling, grammar, communication and memory skills.
Ability to sort, check, count, and verify numbers with accuracy.
Skill in the use and operation of basic office equipment/computer; eye/hand/foot coordination.
Ability to follow verbal and written instructions.

Above-average to excellent typing skills.
I also had to have extensive knowledge of medical practices, and have two years experience.
