I agree, DME seems hard to me, but probably because I know NOTHING about it but what I have read in the posts. My speciality is mental health. I feel comfortable with that since I have worked in that field for almost 7 years. I think it is the easiest, not difficult at all as long as you verify benefits every time, get authorization and stay on top of the authorization so it doesn't run out and the provider works for free! Not many different codes to worry about, a bit more if you work for a psychiatrist and there is medication management, but still fairly easy. Its easy when you know all the ins and outs of a speciality, to me I don't think I could do strictly medical billing becuase I am not familiar with it. If I did it enough I know I could, but right now I guess you could say I'm scared and want to stick with what I know and then maybe branch out, maybe. My plan is to become the best in my speciality in the little part of the world I'm in and when someone says they need a biller that knows mental health my name will be the one that comes to mind. Thats the plan anyway, fingers crossed that some day it will work out that way.

I love this forum, I have learned a lot from everyone. I read everything, some I don't understand because I don't know the fields, etc. but it is still very educational. Just soaking up knowledge wherever I can!
