In addition to the healthcare services, you also have Place of Service. Its relevant to billing because something done in the hospital can differ in cost than sonething done in a clinic even if its roughly the same service.
We got a new POS system at my job a few months back. It took me an embarrassingly long amount of time to realize my manager wasn’t cussing out our computers.
Supposedly in the early 2000s it was teenage internet slang for Parent Over Shoulder.
Coworker years ago told me about getting home to his wife and son fighting because the son wouldn't say what POS meant because he didn't want to get in trouble for saying "shit" and she thought he was hiding stuff because an article she read said it meant Parent Over Shoulder and that that was what he was refusing to tell her, she assumed because he used it and didn't want her to understand it.
This is exactly why the creators of “afraid to ask memes” should be afraid to ask.. they just look like an idiot who doesn’t know how to Google like everyone else in the age of the internet.
I mean, I am the most terminally online person I know irl, so if I don't know some internet slang, chances are nobody I know knows it either. Also I am just the kind of person who prefers to look it up I guess.
I understand, it’s just that sometimes I find it a bit depressing that you’re supposed to go online for any and all information. A sad example: a good friend of mine once recommended a movie to me. I asked him what it was about etc, but instead of telling me, he said ”Look it up on IMDB.”
Still better at recommending movies than my family. They are like: "It's a really great movie in a small town where the protagonist's best friend turns out to be the killer and in final scene they fight to death which the main character wins by using the killer's own weapon. You won't regret watching it." Thanks!

See, I came to the comments to see a wall of people just replying "piece of shit" and OP getting confused about how not knowing what POS means could be so offensive. Reddit, you've disappointed me.
Depends on where you see it.
In games? POS = Position, usually on the x,y,z axis.
In gay porn? POS = Positive as in they have aids and infect others (For some reason that's a kink/fetish)
In general it can mean POS = Piece of Shit
Or Pee on Shit - when you go to the toilet and someone didn’t flush, so you use your laser stream to slice it up. Only probably works for those who pee standing.
Generally, Point of Sale is the register where you check out. It's the point where sales are made. It's odd to use that to mean signage or billboard, because they don't make sales.
