    Medical office procedures support financial policies by using a practice management program (PMP). The PMP uses keyed in information to update a “day sheet” that summarizes all transactions made in a 24 hour period. These day sheets are used by medical staff to create a patient statement which is a printed breakdown of how much a patient owes on their account. The breakdown may consist of deductibles, coinsurance, and fees. When a statement is entered into the PMP, clarity along with accurate information helps the patient to understand their bill and pay on time. The PMP office procedure supports the policy with staff members that are either professional or administrative (McGraw-Hill, 2008).…

    Luckily, I only needed one proposal before my claim was approved. However, it did take quite a while due to thinking and rethinking the claim over in order to be certain that the proposal I wanted was the one which I really cared to presented. My claim, that students should not have an open campus lunch, was challenging to work with while making a visual. I knew how I wanted to display my message, but many times it wasn't giving off the vibe which I was hoping for. Personally, the proposal for me was the easiest part, I knew exactly the argument I wanted to make, and found it easy to put that into words. On the other hand, the visual portion of the essay was the most stressful. Most of my time was spent online trying to find the perfect pictures. Everyone says that the internet has so much stuff on it, just not the ‘stuff’ I needed to form my visual. My essay was backed by mostly facts and statistics. Through research I found it difficult to come up with statistics already on open lunch, so I was forced to be creative with how I pieced my puzzle together.…
