How many medical terms are there?
I'm talking about the prefixes, word roots, and suffixes. I know it would be almost impossible to count EVERY medical term (surgical terms, diagnositc terms, anatomy terms, etc.) But if someone could give me an estimate on how many medical prefixes, suffixes, and word roots (combining forms), I would really appreciate it. Thank you.
2 AnswersTrivia8 years agoWith an RHIT credential, can I get a job that requires a CPC credential?
I am going to college for Health Information Technology and I plan to sit for my RHIT exam. I am not sure yet which department of HIM I'd rather work in, so I figured an RHIT credential will be my best option since it will give me more opportunities. I was wondering if, when the time comes, I could apply for coding positions that require a coding credential. Can a RHIT credential be considered a coding credential? Or will these employers only accept someone with a CPC? Thank you.
2 AnswersHealth Care8 years agoI told my ex that I'm pregnant and he won't respond?
About a week ago I found out I was pregnant and decided to tell my boyfriend on our anniversary because it was in a few days. I knew he would be excited because we've been trying to have a baby for over a year now. Our anniversary came and I barely saw him and wasn't given the chance to tell him my news. The next day he told me that he was leaving me for another girl and he moved out that same day when I wasn't home. I called him and told him that I need to talk to him but he acted like a big jerk about it. So later that night I texted him and told him that I'm pregnant. And I still haven't heard anything back from him. No text. No call. I'm so tempted to keep texting him but I don't wanna be one of those crazy girls so I didn't text him at all since then. Why doesn't he respond? What should I do???
3 AnswersSingles & Dating8 years agoIn a hospital setting who figures out the probabilities?
I'm wondering who figures out the probability of death or recovery or of an increase or decrease of spreading, etc. Do the doctors determine this themselves or do the RHITs or any other professionals get involved?
1 AnswerOther - General Health Care8 years agoExplain the U.S. healthcare system?
I'm not looking for your opinion. So don't answer with 'it sucks'. I just feel clueless.
Try explaining the following:
What percentage of the US government money is spent on healthcare?
How does the U.S. compare to other countries?
What part of healthcare does the US fund most of their money?
How is health insurance financed?
strengths and weakness of the system?
Any information could be helpful! Thanks.

2 AnswersWords & Wordplay8 years agoDo I need a kinect to play all Xbox 360 games?
I see some games say "kinect" on the corners of the cases. Does this just mean that those games are compatible with the kinect? Or does it mean that I need a kinect to be able to play those games?
1 AnswerXbox9 years agoWhat are those silicone bracelets called that have messages engraved?
The WWJD ones were popular, then the livestrong ones were really popular. Now they have ones for support the troops and breast cancer. There are so many of them now that say all kinds of things. Is there a specific name for these bracelets? And do you know how they started? Did they start with the livestrong? Or when? Any info on this topic would be greatly appreciated.
1 AnswerFashion & Accessories9 years agoWhere do I get this men in black app?
My boyfriend saw a commercial for a men in black app that scans people's voices to see if they're human or alien. The commercial gave a website that you gotta go to to get the app. It's not in the app store (just the game is) and a google search got us no where.
1 AnswerVideo & Online Games9 years agoDo I want in or do I want out? Ugh!?
There are so many things I love about my boyfriend and so many things about him that annoy the hell out of me and make me angry. For the past few months I have been trying to decide if I really want to be with him. My personal debate has been going on in my mind constantly. One day I tell myself that it's time to end it. Then the next day I find myself lying in his arms thankful that I have him. Back and forth. Back and forth. I just wish I knew for sure what would happen if he left.
Anyway about an hour ago he did something that made me very angry and I just blurted out that I want him to move out. And he just sat there looking at the tv not saying anything. The longer I sat there waiting for his response the more upset I got so I came upstairs. He still didn't come up to say anything!
Does that mean he agrees? Isn't he even gonna try to fight it?? Now I'm sitting here wondering if I should take it back and tell him to stay or if I should just let it go and see what he does. So...what do you think I should do? Cuz I never really came up with my decision of whether I want him or not. So confused!
5 AnswersSingles & Dating9 years agoTattoo ideas to represent miscarriage?
My sister wants to get a tattoo representing her miscarriage and asked me to help think of ideas. She was thinking of getting a butterfly cacoon with the idea of it never opening. But she's afraid that people will think its a turd or something cuz how could you really draw a cacoon. I suggested a rose bud or another type of flower that hasn't bloomed. She's not really thrilled by the idea. But anyway, she just wants a small picture like that. Nothing with dates or names or angle holding a baby. Nothing that is entirely obvious. Something subtle. Something that she will know what it stands for but others might not. Any creative ideas?
2 AnswersTattoos9 years agoWhat does my tattoo mean to you? please answer!?
After my son was born I got a tattoo representing him which I plan on adding to with each kid I have. I got angel wings with a halo floating above the wings. Then under the wings is his first and middle names written in cursive. I got it on the side of my leg so I could get other names written under it for when I have more kids. I've always been proud of my tattoo. Now, almost 4 years later, someone commented that my tattoo looks like it represents a death. I'm upset now and kinda embarrassed by it cuz I don't want it to look like its in memory of my son! I intended for it to represent my LIVING angel! I'm starting to think I made a bad choice. Did I???

All the stuff is so expensive. My friend recently bought beats headphones for $300 and that seems a bit ridiculous to me. I like the gaga ear buds, the way they look. And I was looking at an hp laptop that has beats audio...but is it really worth the extra money? Or is this stuff just so expensive because it has dr. Dres name on it along with other artists on select products?
