This course introduces the student to all the basics of medical insurance billing and practice management. We cover all the different types of health insurance, who is eligible to receive it, how it is obtained and how the medical claims process works. Managed care, as well as Medicare, Medicaid and commercial insurances, are explained. We show how physician credentialing, whether the provider participates or not with an insurance carrier, affects the billing process. Also addressed are the CAQH credentialing system, NPI numbers and taxonomy codes. Included is a full unit on career opportunities in the field of medical billing.
Hi Alice & Michele, I would like to let you ladies know how helpful and great your books are. It is truly a blessing to have individuals who have been in the industry for a long time and who are successful in the business to share their knowledge, as well as the mistakes you have made along the way so that the new business owner will not make the same mistakes. You ladies are great and you will have continued success because you do not mind sharing and helping others in this industry to succeed. Once again thank you so much for being the ladies that you are!
