This course is designed to help learners of all backgrounds understand and apply medical terminology in real-world healthcare settings. Whether you're working in medical coding, billing, administration, nursing, or as a medical assistant, this course provides a strong foundation in the language of healthcare — with a focus on practical usage, not academic theory.

You’ll learn how medical terms are built using prefixes, suffixes, and root words, and how to interpret the terminology commonly used in diagnoses, procedures, and documentation. The course also includes system-by-system terminology — including cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, urinary, reproductive, nervous, musculoskeletal, and integumentary systems — along with relevant anatomy and physiology.

Designed to be beginner-friendly, this course offers clear explanations, interactive exercises, and realistic examples from EHRs, clinical notes, and billing documentation to help reinforce learning. No prior medical knowledge is needed.
