Pearson I RECOMMEND I just received my new "Registered Heath Information Administrator (RHIA) Exam Preparation" study guide from AHIMA, and I am very impressed. This is the type resource that I was looking for when I started this website. It contains a bank of questions, and not only are the references given, but the answers are fully explained. Sometimes the explanations contain quotes from the resources, which are up to a paragraph long. It also comes with electronic flash cards to help learn terms. What Study Buddy is NOT and Disclaimer
