Medical Billing and Coding Jobs

Medical billers and coders keep medical practices, clinics, and other healthcare providers in business by making sure bills are correctly coded and then paid. Medical billing and coding jobs are found in medical practices, insurance companies, and organizations that specialize in billing. Medical billing and coding is an exact science.

Along with determining the correct code for medical services, a medical biller and coder prepares invoices for payment and insurance claims, tracks those payments, and corrects rejected claims. To do their job correctly, they must know about anatomy, medical terminology, and finance. Medical billers and coders also need to pay attention to detail, have documentation and organization skills, excel at verbal communication, and exhibit professionalism.
