E/M codes tell what was done in the office. Everything that the doctor or physician has done is documented, and coded. If a certain thing was not done then it should not be coded, and charged for that is considered fraud. Also everything that is done in the office must be documented, and coded using the E/M codes. If the E/M coding was done incorrectly the person would get in trouble for fraud, and not only that the office would have a bad reputation, and other insurance companies wouldn 't probably want to go through that office anymore.
The novel, The Hate U Give, by Angie Thomas, intrigues the reader by something called “code switching”, which most readers may not notice; this is important because it shows the roots of the characters in the book and how they contribute to code switching. Code switching is “the use of more than one language or language variety concurrently in conversation”, according to the article, “Nah, We Straight”: An Argument Against Code Switching, by Vershawn Ashanti Young. Although many people contribute to code switching, it is mostly identified with race, which is what Thomas’s book portrays a focus on. This novel suggests that to be a black adolescent in 21st-century America you must change how you present yourself to fit in, which includes the
Our identity is a place upon many attributes of a human being. Whether the person is someone who goes on promoting themselves to the world or not, and it shows how people communicate to others around them. Language is one of the main components that unveils the person’s identity in their everyday life, and they are many different ways to approach a person’s language. Relating to the article of Yiyun Li, “To Speak is to Blunder,” she knows two languages that has its positive and negative outcomes in her life. I to relate to her understanding of language, but a different view of what language means to me.
In Lera Boroditsky 's "How Does Our Language Shape the Way We Think" the purpose of the essay is apparent from the second paragraph. "Language is a uniquely human gift central to our experience of being human" she explains, so that the reader understands how language affects ones thoughts and day to day lives (2). Boroditsky 's use of empirical evidence, factual information, organizational structure, understanding and construction upon thoughts that disprove her purpose, and light tone all aide in accomplishing her purpose. Each of these methods help convince the audience that, " Language is central to our experience of being human, and the languages we speak profoundly shapes the way we think, the way we see the world, the way we live our lives" (Boroditsky 10).
Introduction ‘Language gives shape and organisation to thought’ (Winch, Ross- Johnston, March, Ljungdahl & Holliday, 2010. Pg 467). Several fascinating aspects of language include it being a form of communication, which interprets information and passes messages from one person to another. For each individual language is different due to cultural backgrounds and beliefs, different communities and also the individuals’ capabilities. Speaking to a person verbally is not the only form of language, it can be writing, reading, listening and even body language.
Speakers form and establish a pidgin language when two or more speakers who do not speak a common language form an intermediate, third language. On the other hand, speakers practice code-switching when they are each fluent in both languages. Code mixing is a thematically related term, but the usage of the terms code-switching and code-mixing varies. Some scholars use either term to denote the same practice, while others apply code-mixing to denote the formal linguistic properties of language-contact phenomena, and code-switching to denote the actual, spoken usages by multilingual persons. Literature scholars use the term code- switching to describe literary styles which include elements from more than one language, e.g. novels by Latino writers,
Code switching is a switch in the way you speak or the language you speak, Sometimes codes switching is formal or in formal speech. Code switching is something you do around your friends, family, school, and work. It is something very important because it helps with every conversation you may have at school, home or work. Schools make this a requirement to code switch because it helps to improve your communication with others, which is good for a future job interview and speaking with law enforcements. I feel like school made this a requirement for everybody because it helps to know when to speak properly and when you’re talking to friends.

Berman which is the President of the Modern Language Association and professor of Comparative Literature and German Studies at Stamford University said that, study a foreign language do not required us to understand the words and grammar of that language only. But, we are also can learn the skill to communicated with other person, the pronunciations and the meaning of the
An explanation of a particular subject may require certain words or sentences in another language which may help learners understand the concept (Moodley, 2013:68). For example, a History teacher will be teaching about apartheid, there might be certain phrases which may require code-switching and thus the learner would be able to understand how particular groups of people felt during that specific -time period. It also might give context to what is being

CHAPTER II LITERATURE REVIEW Introduction Definition and backgrounds of theories and concepts connected to this study are provided in this chapter.

All human beings communicate either with intention or without intention every single day. According to Barth (2014), Palo Alto Team stated “ one cannot not communicate” in one of their axioms of communication. Communication can be defined as “a social process in which individuals employ symbols to establish and interpret meaning in their environment” (Went & Turner, 2014, p. 5). It can be divided into three models in order to enhance our understanding towards the function of communication, which are mainly linear model, interactional model and transcactional model (Wood, 2009). According to Went & Turner, 2014, there are also different traditions and contexts in communication where it helps us to break down difficulty when we attempt to understand communication theory and their process.
Language is an important part of our life. Language and communication cannot separate. People use the language as a means of communication to express their ideas and feelings. They communicate either with each other using language in every social interaction; communicate with others directly or indirectly in the spoken and written form. Therefore, language is an important thing of communication in social life.
