Help your students master the terminology they need to succeed in ICD-10 and CPT coding! Using small learning segments or “chunks,” Medical Terminology & Anatomy for Coding, 5th Edition makes it easy to learn anatomy, physiology, and medical terminology. Concepts and terms are introduced and then immediately followed by exercises that reinforce and assess student understanding of the material. In addition, this text discusses word parts and the rules for building medical terms, building knowledge that may be applied to coding for all body systems and procedures. Ideal for programs that combine A&P and med term into one class, the book includes an Evolve website with medical animations, labeling activities, quizzes and exams, and more.
