 Medical Terminology - Summer 2007

               

This class is designed to teach the basics of medical terminology, with emphasis on anatomy and physiology. Unlike the typical terminology class, this program will utilize an enjoyable, relaxed learning environment that has proved to be very effective. Students will gain knowledge of medical terminology through the correct usage of prefixes, suffixes and root words. By utilizing this simple breakdown methodology, participants will learn how to recognize the definitions of complex medical terms. Study of terms outside of class is necessary.


Notes: This class was designed for those who have no formal terminology training and would like to further or begin a career in the medical field. The program is a stepping-stone for medical coding, transcription and other health care careers. Attendance, class participation and test scores determine successful course completion. Study of terms outside of class is necessary for successful participation.

 

This class is a Prerequisite for the Medical Coding Specialist Class. You must take this class before taking Medical Coding Specialist.
