This new Medical Assisting text with supplemental materials provides an innovative, visually interesting, and well-written interactive package that will appeal to both the community college and career school market. Comprehensive coverage focuses on the impact of managed care and current health care trends to reflect the realistic viewpoint of the busy medical office environment in which today's Medical Assistants will find themselves. A key feature of the text is that it is organized to follow the way a patient moves through the medical office, from the time they check in at the front desk through their clinical experience, then back out to the front desk for checkout. This logical organization can easily be broken into separate administrative and clinical sections for programs who teach this information independently. Each chapter refers students to Internet resources and is linked to various supplements for further study and practice. Unique organization of content is arranged logically according to the way a patient moves through the medical office. Even though the material is oriented to the patient's experience, material can be easily presented in a more traditional format.* Updated content on federal legislation regulating health care providers, managed care trends, and bioethical issues is included, helping students to learn the current information that will guide their performance in the workplace. Each chapter identifies the CMA (AAMA) and RMA (AMT) content and competencies, helping students and instructors focus their attention as they read and study. Enrichment topics on relevant "nice-to-know" subjects such as new medical trends, diagnostics, treatments, diseases, etc., add interest and current information. "Focus On" boxes include information on communication, instruction, legal concepts, professionalism, and safety that is important for the student to know. These topics are common threads through each chapter. "On the Job" boxes showcase scenarios using characters from the fictitious medical practice and/or the Saunders Medical Assisting Critical Thinking Video Series (due to publish 10/01) to check on the student's comprehension of the previous material and to challenge critical thinking skills, helping students apply new knowledge to real situations. Student study plans contain exercises at the end of each chapter that help the student to review and use information and skills gained from the chapter to answer critical thinking questions and "what if?" questions. Students are also referred to supplemental materials. "Explore the Web" boxes list key words for internet searches and internet websites for further student study and research.
