Rating: - excellant resource material
this book has provided me with much needed information on my job as a nurse and medical coder
Rating:  - "Medical Billers"
As a medical biller, it has made my job a lot easier, I have the same book but is about 11 yrs old so I really needed an updated version, its great, and to be honest at first I though I wouldn't use it as much as I do, but it has so much information, its on my desk all the time and I love it.
Rating: - Very helpful
I am a medical coder, and this book helps me in my work. I can find anything I need.
Rating: - Every edition it gets bigger and better
This is my third updated edition of this book. It is incredibly helpful when trying to decipher medical abbreviations. It has tripled in size in the 10 years I have been referencing it. The editors have tried to keep up with all the changes in the medical field and they have done an admirable job. A must have for any medical/nursing student and anyone else remotely related to heath care.
