*In my future career I will be able to carry my cell phone with me everywhere being that I will be working from home as a medical biller and coder. I have already downloaded some apps that will help be my reference with medical terminology such as an app for medical abbreviations as well as an app for medical word breakdowns that show prefixes, root words, and suffixes. Even though I am aware that those apps may not be 100% accurate at times, I can always find credible websites (also using my cell phone) that can verify the information in the app and whether or not it is factual information or not.
At this point in the course, you are becoming fairly proficient at recognizing and using various word parts within medical terms. We have covered many of "the basics" of medical terminology, but as with any new language, you will continue to learn and use new words throughout your careers. You will come across unfamiliar words, phrases, and abbreviations for
many years to come. In order to be prepared for this, it is important to identify valid and reliable resources for medical information.
For your initial post, please provide one example of a valid and reliable resource that you would
be able to use in your future career. Keep in mind that it's probably not feasible to carry around
a physical book while performing your job. What kind of resources would be available for you in
your chosen career? Online, mobile, and other versatile resources might be useful sources to consider. Make sure to cite your reference appropriately (in APA format) and describe why you believe it is a valid and reliable source of information.
For your reply post, access the resource that your classmate identified. Use this source to find 3
terms that are unfamiliar to you. List and define those medical terms in your post. Also, do you agree that this reference is a valid and reliable source of information? Why or why not?
