Our providers do not code, nor do they want to, so--yes--we code. Gotta get that CPC!

To me they are different specialities all together and I've never ever ever had a client challenge me.. or turn me down because I didn't code. I dont' want the liability.. plain and simple. HOWEVER... I can spot blatant problems, mis-matched diagnosis codes and misplaced/not used modifiers. Today's biller MUST be at least FAMILIAR with coding but does NOT have to be a coder.

Yes I agree...

Sometimes its more and sometimes its a little less
Meetings with insurance companies add 36 more hours per week.
Yes, I code and alot more.

If I EVER offer that as a service, I will hire me an experienced and educated...maybe I can hire you or Linda :-)
PMRNC:
NOT me. I have NO intentions of becoming a coder, if I did I would have done it a long time ago. I have many reasons for this with one being that I refuse to be a slave to certification organizations who nickel and dime you to death to keep your certification. No thanks!
