Re: [Cancer Registrar Group] Digest Number 268

The AHIMA courses run about $500 for each module - they aren't cheap, but they
are well organized. Das - will you be able to spend any time in an active
registry? On the job training and experience is very helpfu. Good luck with
your studies!

Subject: Just starting in the bookwork.

Good evening from Sitka, Alaska, friends. Thank you for allowing me to
join the group. Just a glance at some of the posts tells me I am in
for a mind-challenging career. That's just what I need.

As I indicated in my request e-mail, I am enrolled in the Cancer
Registry Program through AHIMA online and can honestly say the format
has made the best possible way to learn. I work full-time as a medical
transcriptionist in an acute-care facility, so working out
my "learning" hours each day is great. I look forward to moving
through each module.

I would just like to say that if there is any feedback group members
may have for me..please share!

Thank you,
DAS
