questions on here. Honestly, the test is to see what YOU know, and you shouldn't be cheating by asking us. Not trying to be rude, but it sounds like you probably need some more schooling. Those online schools aren't very good IMHO.

Not a joke folks, that is exactly what the doc says! Now, would I find that in the medical dictionary or the English dictionary? Maybe Wikipedia knows something about it? LOL

cc.  I have the latest BOS and BOS workbook and I'm still confused. 


My account has a few doctors whose work is automatically sent to QA.  I thought we were no longer supposed to use cc and change it to mL.  I had  marked as error when I changed doctor stated cc to mL.  I then asked one of the mentors on my account and she stated mL is used for what goes into the patient, IV, blood products, etc., and cc is used for what comes out of the patient, urine etc. 


Is there any consensus on this?  I trust all of you here.
