Medical Billing
Medical billing is the process healthcare providers use to submit and follow up on claims with insurance companies to get reimbursed for services provided to patients. It involves converting a patient's treatment and diagnosis information into specific codes, submitting claims electronically or on paper, and ensuring the insurance company pays their part. The process also includes handling patient billing statements, managing denials or issues with claims, and maintaining accurate records. Effective medical billing ensures healthcare providers receive proper payment for their services while helping patients understand their financial responsibilities.
