Healthcare Billing

Healthcare billing is the process by which medical providers, such as hospitals and doctors, generate invoices for services rendered to patients or insurance companies. It involves submitting detailed claims that specify treatments, procedures, and medicines provided, which are then reviewed for coverage. The payer (insurance or patient) is responsible for paying these bills, either directly or through co-pays, deductibles, or coverage limits. Efficient billing ensures providers are compensated for their services and patients understand their financial responsibilities. Clear communication and accurate documentation are essential to prevent billing errors and facilitate smooth financial transactions in healthcare.
