They are probably destroyed. Hospitals only keep medical records for 5 years if the file is inactive. Unless you have had a history of cancer, are a child at time of exam, or have mammograms. I would assume the millitary is the same

The different Medicare "parts" refer to the US Code that established them\n\nPart A - inpatient Hospital insurance.  Free to those who have paid via payroll deductions for 40 quarters.  Requires payment of deductible once per benefit period (period restarts after 60 days out of the hospital)\nPart B - Medical insurance (for doctor bills, medical supplies, outpatient facility charges, independent labs, etc.).  Costs about $88/month, can be deducted from your SS check quarterly.  There is a deductible, then coinsurance, usually 20%.\nPart C - Medicare replacement plan (also known as Medicare HMO or PPO).  The Medicare premiums you pay are given to an HMO, which assumes risk for your care.  You have to see docs only in your plan, choose a Primary Care provider and get referrals for specialty care, but there are usually no deductibles and you pay only a small copay for each visit/service.\nPart D - Drug coverage.  Plans vary, but most have high out of pocket expenses before coverage kicks in.  Helpful for those on high cost drugs or who take lots of different drugs each week.\n\nPlease see http://www.medicare.gov and search any topic for more info

Typically the behind the scenes daily operation of the clinic/facility they're working at. Strategic vision for the clinic/facility.  Budgeting process.  Personnel.  Human resources.\nit really depends upon how large/type of facility it is.  A physician outpatient clinic will differ significantly from a hospital, etc.

Where the computers are. LOL. I work for the IT department in the hospital. There are always computers at the hospital. So try there. Hospitals will always be here. And they will always be up to date with the best software.

Well, I have done medical billing for six years.  Most hospitals use CPT and ICD-9 coding.  I am not familiar with hospital coding, but you could always call the hospital billing and ask them what the code is and then refer back to the CPT book at that point.
