This review is from: Medical Abbreviations: 26,000 Conveniences At The Expense Of Communications And Safety (Paperback)

This is an excellent resource! As a medical records coder it is important to understand all of those abbreviations used by physicians. This was a book I always had to have along with my ICD-9-CM and CPT books, and I now recommend it to any new coders that I help train.

I am a medical transcriptionist for a local hospital and use the book regularly and it always has the abbreviation sought for.

this book has a great number of abbreviations. Unfortunately, I've already looked up a couple that are not in the book.
