5.0 out of 5 stars Great for learning vocabulary, August 21, 2006
This book is great to pick up the terms used in Medical health care as well as the flow of manual charting and recording. It will help you to understand the functionality of an EMR or EHR system.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essentials of Health Information Management Principles, November 5, 2006
By W. L. Christ (Harrison, Arkansas) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I give this book a 5 star. It was very easy to navigate around, search for what I needed, and clearly understand each chapter. After reading the text book...I've gained a lot of insight in the Health Information Management field. I would honestly recommend this book to anyone. I would also like to give thumbs up to Amazon in shipping this book to me in a hurry. I overheard someone at the college book store not having the books available for our class. So, I ordered the book right away from Amazon. I showed up for class and beleive it or not.....I was the only one (in class) who had a book. Everyone else had to wait 3 weeks before they could start their assignment. I have been very please with every order that I have placed with Amazon and I have ordered a lot from them:-)
