Tonight students learned the purpose of anesthesia is to achieve absence of pain. We explored the 4 types of anesthesia, calculating anesthesia time, anesthesia providers and guidelines for reporting anesthesia codes per the American Medical Association and the American Society of Anesthesiologists

A thorough knowledge of human anatomy is essential to successful medical coding, as is the ability to understand medical terminology used to describe and document medical procedures/services. Medical terminology is the language of medicine. Every great coder needs this foundational knowledge.

It's always important to recognize the hard work and dedication that physicians demonstrate in our communities each day. A doctor works an average of nearly 60 hours a week and even more impressive, they work 1.5 times more years than the average American does. They work well under pressure, they're industrious, and they're attentive towards each patient. If there's one person you can count on who will never get burnt out, it's definitely your doctor.
