There's appears to be an widespread issue with the CD that comes with this book. In my current class we were supposed to use it regularly, but found out that we couldn't because only 1 person in my class actually had a cd that worked. It is not "operator's error" I assure you. The executable file is corrupt, therefore the program will never install. And, when I contacted the seller about this they sent me another cd, after much inconvenience. AND, the second cd also had the same problem. Also, the cd's come already scratched and/or foggy on the bottom. Not sure how this is being allowed, but very frustrating. Especially since I am supposed to use this book for another class next quarter and we're going to have to go through this all over again...in reference to my teacher realizing nobody can use their cd. I called the publisher's customer service and they forwarded me to tech support, although if you know anything about computers, you know that if the executable file is corrupt, no tech support can fix that. So, then tech support said they couldn't do anything for me since they hadn't gotten any memos stating this was a widespread problem. That's probably due to the fact that most students don't have the time nor the energy to make numerous phone calls only to get no resolution.

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:-)

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.

THis book was well worth the price paid and was in great condition. I received my order very quickly

This is a great learning text, very informative. I needed it for school and it arrived in a very timely manner. This was a great help and a wonderful tool. I still use it every day.

Great! The book is in excelent condition (looks new), some writting on it, but I got a good deal! thanks!

It is a great accompaniment to my online text. It is easier for me to use a book rather than read it all online. Thanks to the seller and Amazon for providing me with the tools I prefer to succeed in online classes!

I had to purchase a book for school and everything about it was great, from the shipping to the product. The book was more than half the price of the school and in wonderful condition. Thank you!!
