Administrative Medical Assisting

This spiral-bound worktext is specifically designed for learning administrative, or 'front office', medical assisting skills. This second edition contains new information on HMOs, PPOs IPAs, DRGs, APGs, Medicare and CHAMPUS. The book provides both theory and reference material, as well as simulated work situations that duplicate real-life work experiences. It contains full-size, actual forms and materials used by medical assistants - there's no need for supplements. Performance objectives, end- of-chapter questions, medical terminology, and chart notes are included. The previous edition of this book was published in 1982.
