Using the provider's practice management software

Okay, thanks for your help.
I guess the office that I work in does things a little differently. Since it's a chiropractic office, repeat visits/charges are the norm so each patient has a "Default Charge" set in our practice management system. Charges/CPT codes are automatically entered into the system and are only done by hand if there is a "special visit" (read new patient visit, re-exam, x-rays, etc.). Because of this, we don't use a super bill the way that you described it. At the end of every day, all of the charges are already in our computer system. Because of this, sending the bills to the billing service would mean printing out the bills and forwarding a copy via fax or some other method. I guess this is more akin to what Michele described. I know that us chiropractic offices tend to do things a little differently. ;-)

Thanks again for your help.

We actually bill for several chiropractors.  Most of them don't use superbills either.  We get the info from them in a variety of ways.  Some just write the patients' names & date of visit on a list.  Like you said, diagnosis & cpt's are the same.  If there is any change they make a note to us.  Others give us sheets with the patient name & visit date, but the codes are the same (again).  Some choose to enter into their computer and print out the info.
