Each chapter closes with Critical Thinking Questions (listed below) as a review of chapter
material that focuses on the role of the medical assistant. 1. During a routine inventory inspection, you notice that
the supply of prescription pads is extremely low for
typical office use. Could there be a problem within the
office other than just the need to order more pads from
the printer? What would you do? 2. You share the responsibility of ordering supplies with
another medical assistant in the office. You are checking
supplies and ordering regularly, but the other employee
is allowing items to become completely depleted. What
would you do? 3. The Sunday paper runs an ad indicating that a local
supply vendor is going out of business soon. How do
you shop for a new vendor? How could you make the
most out of the closeout specials advertised? |
