Student Study Guide for Health Information

Student Study Guide includes applied-learning exercises and cases with real-life medical records to help students apply what they learned from the book and in the classroom.

This guide offers useful study tips and test-taking techniques, with information on preparing performance grids, working with critical competence questions, and understanding AHIMA domains and subdomains.
For each chapter in the textbook, the Study Guide features a pretest review and a chapter review test, both offering answers with rationales to help you identify areas where more study is needed.
Critical thinking assignments for each chapter encourage you to apply the new concepts and skill you are learning in the textbook to real-world situations, such as:


Preparing an electronic health care record scenario
Explaining how separate parties use health care data
Preparing a training program for a systems implementation or upgrade
Writing a brief on implementing a wireless network

A comprehensive certification section prepares you for exams with valuable information on exam applications, content, cost, scoring, and test-taking strategies.
An accompanying Evolve website offers additional multiple-choice, true/false, and matching questions for even more practice putting important concepts into practice.
