Are you looking for a more flexible career? Are you interested in the “business” side of medicine? Do you love details, thrive on critical thinking, and enjoy research and learning? It is one of the fastest growing careers in the healthcare industry today! The need for professionals that understand how to code health care services and procedures for third-party insurance reimbursement is growing substantially. Physician practices, hospitals, long-term care facilities, chiropractic practices, physical therapy practices and other healthcare providers all depend on medical coding and billing for insurance carrier reimbursement. Medical billing is the process of submitting, and following up on, medical claims sent to health insurance companies for reimbursement of services rendered by a healthcare provider. The Department of Labor reports that the employment for Medical Coder/Billers is projected to grow 11% from 2018 to 2028, faster than the average for all occupations.
