Health Glossary

The healthcare delivery environment can be difficult to understand. In fact, at times it may seem that healthcare professionals speak a different language entirely. At CMMC, care providers do their best to speak plainly, but the use of healthcare terminology is sometimes unavoidable.

The glossaries featured in the navigation bar on the right of this page have been compiled to help healthcare consumers better understand some of the terms that they may encounter as they seek care at CMMC or at any hospital.
