How will knowing medical terminology help you provide good patient care?

Medical Terminology is a universal language, so when a patient presents with pre-existing issues ANY healthcare provider can read the chart and pick up where the previous provider left off. Medical Terminology is very specific so it helps to prevent confusion between different diagnoses or communication barriers thus, providing for a safer environment for the patient.
