Klappentext
Written in a clear, engaging style, Plunkett's Procedures for the the Health Services Administrative Assistant, 6th Edition provides instruction for all the essential office procedures required by today's health services administrative assistants in Canada - whether they work in a medical office, a complementary care office, or in a hospital setting. Plunkett's contains the most current information available in the field, and specifically reflects health care in Canada. Chapters address the diverse skills and knowledge required by a medical office administrative assistant, such as good communication, privacy, customer service, stress management, medical transcription, filing, appointment booking, physical and virtual meetings, billing (ICD-10-CA), and more. This new expanded edition includes in-depth coverage of topics including privacy and confidentiality, hospital procedures, cross-cultural communication, and more; three new chapters on health care's evolving landscape, therapeutic communication, and pharmacology; and a revised art program.
