As a health care administrator, you will likely need to know many clinical terms, even though you are not involved in direct patient care. For example, perhaps you will be coding and billing for a patient's treatment, or maybe you will be part of health care IT working on the health care information systems and need to interpret medical data. It is important that everyone speaks the same language. Watch "Communication in Healthcare" to gain real-world insight about communicating in the health care field. For this discussion, research 1 body system that interests you. • Discuss the body system you selected using medical terminology that you learned during your research. • Highlight and detail an illness or disease that has an impact on this system. For example, the respiratory system can be affected by cigarette smoking, which may result in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Explain how deepening your understanding of body systems and the conditions that affect them will benefit you in your chosen career path in health care. ● As a health care administrator, you will likely need to know many clinical terms, even though you are not involved in direct patient care.
