This course presents the use of an integrated medical practice management/electronic health record system (PM/EHR) in a medical office setting. Students learn the conceptual framework for the use of electronic health records and patient management. By working through exercises of increasing difficulty that simulate the use of a PM/EHR, students develop transferable skills needed to manage the required software tasks across the total patient encounter. In addition, students will begin to prepare for the National Healthcareer Association (NHA) Certified Medical Administrative Assistant (CMAA) Exam. The student will be eligible to sit for this exam if desired after completion of the AS degree in Health Services Management and/or the Healthcare Services Specialist Certification Program.
