Discuss the importance of a thorough knowledge of medical terminology in coding. The health care industry has one common language‚ medical terminology. Medical terminology which is used in health care is multi-syllabic and has precise meaning. It is specific to diseases and refers to every part of the human body. It is transferrable so the patient can have continuity of care from one physician to another physician‚ along with all the health care workers. Coders will need to know medical terminology

When discussing inpatient and outpatient services you are discussing to different processes that issues and medical facilities or private practices. When looking for differences in inpatient and outpatient services‚ one of the major differences would be the type of service they provide and the coding and billing process. An inpatient service requires the patient to be admitted into a health facility for at least 24 hours. Some inpatient overnight cares can be done at a hospital‚ skilled nursing

The pictorial blocks are compressed using discrete haar wavelet transformation and text/graphics colors are mapped to primary colors using color quantization algorithm and the resulting index values are then compressed using lossless Huffman coding technique. The compressed image is then encrypted using Advanced Encryption Standard algorithm. The proposed model provides several benefits like low complexity‚ high compression ratio‚ and a high PSNR value .Moreover it ensures that the transmission
