Lexicologist! Wordsmith! Librarian!    If so, you are perfect for this collaborative social linguistic healthcare network! Welcome to the Comprehensive HEALTH DICTIONARY SERIES™ Wiki Project with iMBA's Collaborative Lexicon Query Service™ "The ne plus ultra of the craft" WHO: The Comprehensive Health Dictionary Series of Administrative Terms is produced by the Institute of Medical Business Advisors Inc., and the Springer Publishing Company. But, the Series really is about you; as a living organic construct.
WHAT: The Health Dictionary Series is a 4 volume, 1,800 pages encyclopedic compendium of all health definitions, abbreviations, acronyms, and slang terms; non-clinical.
WHERE: Springer is a medical publisher in New York City; and iMBA is a think-tank of medical and financial professionals; health economists and attorneys; IT gurus, administrators and educators in Norcross, Georgia.
WHEN: Continually, on a rolling basis - pro re nata!
HOW: Just like an industry-specific lexicon Wiki service. Submit an unusual new term, abbreviation or acronym with definition. If the submission passes editorial muster, it will be included in the next appropriate Health Dictionary Series™ edition.
WHY: Healthcare is the largest domestic industry. But, some suggest the changes of managed care are malignant; as many industry segments, professionals and patients suffer because of it. This tumult is so great that Americans can no longer assume definitional stability. The resulting chaos is legion. And so, since knowledge is power in times of great flux, codified information protects us all from physical, economic and emotional harm!
