    Thank you as of now I am in the Medical Terminology study. This is my impression of this medical language ; it is as a never ending story. For me this story is very interesting. I was out of high school when the internet was added to the school learning resource. I relate to the old school study and learning method. Thank you for the tips. 💙💙💙

Do I need to get updated versions to benefit my self studies? I hope I am asking the question in the correct way. Thank you Ms Blue . 💙💙

    You are right. I had to drop a medical coding course because the instructors were extremely disorganized, bad grammar and couldn't read the medical terminology correctly or not even try to say it so it was difficult to follow. The instructor repeatedly said "pacific" and "pacifically" when she meant specific. And these were instructors who've had 20+ years in the field. I personally need people to be more professional. Sometimes I feel like our future is cooked because people are lazy about learning.

    I have an Associate degree in medical billing and coding. I graduated with honor in 2006. Well, I never work in the field due to illness. Thank God my student loan was forgiven. Now I want to use my degree. Can someone guide me on how to work part-time at home with a flexible schedule. I'm tight on budget. This inflation is killing me.

    Hi Bleu. You are correct. The CCS and the CCS-P are two very different credentials. The CCS is the mastery of both inpatient and outpatient facility coding. The CCS-P is the mastery of physician based and pro-fee coding. That is why when you get the CCS the CCS-P is not disolved.
