While there are naturally some differences in the training for an associate's degree as opposed to a bachelor's degree, many health care agencies - including hospitals and doctor's offices - are recognizing the fact that those graduating with associate's degrees can perform many of the same duties and handle many of the same responsibilities as those with bachelor's degree.
