Medical billing involves generating claims to submit to insurance companies for payment of medical services. Medical billers navigate between patients, healthcare providers and insurance companies and translate healthcare services into billing claims.
Knowledgeable medical billers can optimize revenue performance for physician practices and healthcare organizations.
People often combine medical billing and coding, but they are distinct roles and have different professional certifications that are recognized by employers. Both are occupations in health information management, which is a growing healthcare career field.
