Every healthcare provider, including dentists, surgeons, doctors, or
chiropractors, is entitled to receive money for their services.
Medical billing companies are setup to make it easier for them to
wade through the murky waters or regulation and insurance company
code to ensure proper and timely reimbursement.
Employees trained by medical billing companies are trained to
understand health insurance and the healthcare industry in all its
complexity. Their individual responsibilities are then to bill
patients and insurance companies based on the proper codes according
to their superbill (treatment record). Then, they have to follow up
on claims and answer any questions regarding billing. In addition,
medical billers must submit reports and help their clients to
understand the positive and negative aspects of their cash flow.
