Publisher's Synopsis
This new Medical Assisting text with supplemental materials provides an
innovative, visually interesting, and well-written interactive package that
will appeal to both the community college and career school market.
Comprehensive coverage focuses on the impact of managed care and
current health care trends to reflect the realistic viewpoint of the busy
medical office environment in which today's Medical Assistants will find
themselves. A key feature of the text is that it is organized to follow the
way a patient moves through the medical office, from the time they check
in at the front desk through their clinical experience, then back out to the
front desk for checkout. This logical organization can easily be broken
into separate administrative and clinical sections for programs who teach
this information independently. Each chapter refers students to Internet
resources and is linked to various supplements for further study and
practice.
