Gain realistic experience in a physician's office without leaving the classroom! By using Virtual Medical Office - your Today's Medical Assistant, 2nd Edition textbook, a study guide, and interactive software - you will develop the critical thinking and decision-making skills you'll need in externships and on the job. In Virtual Medical Office, you observe patient care from check-in through checkout, including the documentation needed for accurate insurance billing and coding. You'll see how to review the cases of different patients - and why each one needs to be analyzed individually. Developed by expert educators Kathy Bonewit-West and Sue Hunt, VMO covers realistic simulations such as handling a difficult patient and setting up the exam room, letting you apply concepts and learn from mistakes in a safe environment.
