Very thorough discussion of this care setting is given. I appreciate the details given in the section on documentation. The Reimbursement section is very well detailed. I can�t say enough good about the level of useful detail given.� �It is a concise and focused text with valuable assignments and critical thinking questions.� About the Author Ann Peden is Professor of Health Informatics and Information Management at the University Mississippi Medical Center�s School of Health-Related Professions in Jackson, Mississippi.
