  5. Self-Paced Learning: Students can learn at their own pace and can repeat activities until they feel confident in their skills.

Overall, MOSS can provide medical students with practical experience in managing a medical office. It can help them develop essential skills such as time management, accuracy, and patient record management, which can be valuable in their future medical careers. Each of our program offers different MOSS simulations that are relevant to the program they are completing.
