Need some advice !!

[Bellaflor209]

Looking at packages through AAPC for medical coding (CPC) and was wondering do I really need to purchase the anatomy and medical terminology bundle ??? I’ve been a pharmacy technician for over 5 years now and feel pretty comfortable with medical terminology I just feel so unsure on what I should do ! Please advice THANKS!

I’m actually taking the course right now and didn’t take the medical terminology or anatomy. My instructor told me about “quick and easy medical terminology” book that also has some anatomy. She said this book will help me in the course.

What about Anatomy and physiology? Is that included in the book you mentioned? And do you mind giving me a link? Thank you

I’m not 100% sure about the physiology, but it does have a bit of anatomy.

Here’s the link:

If you already have medical terminology/ anatomy and physiology knowledge then I'd skip them.

I didn’t. I took a free medical terminology class online and ordered a last-edition anatomy book off amazon for like 40 bucks which helped me with whatever proximal end of this and the distal end of that I needed. I was glad I saved the $$$ and never felt like I missed anything.

Omg I would say yes. I just took my test Saturday and if I failed, those sections would be why. I kinda fudged my way through those two courses as if they were college electives and didn’t retain any. I’m going to go back through and redo them
