Hello all,

I am a Coding student and even my Instructor cannot explain the difference (if any) between a Total and a Complete Thyroidectomy.:confused:
Thanks in advance to any who can clarify
 
Complete vs. Total

Total and Complete are the same just as Partial and Sub-Total are the same...it's just the way some medical professionals refer to the procedure.

Coding - the wonderful world of MUD.

Have a great weekend,

Joyce
 
Thank You!!

Thanks, everyone for the info. It's great as a student to be able to pick the brains of those with experience in the industry. One last thing...
What is MUD an acronym for? :D
