With all due respect, I've been in this business probably a bit longer than most people here. Not only have I've been in this business longer, I have an MPH in healthcare administration as well so as far as laws are concerned, I think I know them better than anyone on this forum. Having said that and clarifying that, I am not saying that a biller's job is simply data entry however, at the end of the day, its the doctor who is responsible for their billing! It's the doctor that has to know what is going on in their practice! At the end of the day, its the doctors responsibility to CHECK what the biller is billing, what codes she or he is using, what is collected, etc. The point I was trying to make here is that its still the doctors responsibility to know what is going on in their practice. Yes if you are given a code you should know what that code means however its the doctors responsibility to know the codes, not the billers! As much as you don't want to think of yourself as only a data entry person, you are DOING DATA entry. You are entering the information the DOCTOR gave you to bill. Maybe you don't want to look at it this way but hey we all doing data entry. To collect, is a different story, yes I agree, it's much more complicated that than, but as far as entering the information from a super bill is called DATA ENTRY. I don't agree with you on a lot of things you say on this forum and the advice you give to people that are just starting, but everyone is entitled to their own opinion. This is just mine.

Richard, I understand what you are saying.... some billers do that and some don't. I have a doctor in New York who I tried to give him that advice and he kindly asked me to never tell him any advice and how to do things, he's set on his old way and he wants to do things the way he is used to saying so in this case, it is a data entry account, where he only wants me to bill whatever he writes on the super bill. So you cannot say its never what we are given that we bill. Every doctor is different, every practice is different.
Read this back to me? Excuse me? I don't need to read anything back to myself because like I said, I know what I know and you can tell me whatever you want but what you are saying is completely FALSE and pretty much everything you say here is false and people are just taking your advise thinking you know something about this business. My compliance plan states everything it needs to state if not more than yours. You come off thinking you are better than other billing companies ranting about how you tell doctors about compliance plans and they never even heard of it, trying to come off like you know more than other billing companies. You don't, after what I read that you have to say that billers are responsible for doctors billing. The fact that you think that doctors are not supposed to know billing is a problem in itself. DO You even know that doctors by law must learn coding and billing! Do you even understand what you are saying. Yes, doctors in medical school and in residency learn about billing and coding. HELLO!!!!!!!! You should do some research instead of telling me to do research before giving advice to people. I did my research and I do know that its the doctor who is responsible for billing codes, not the billers.
Hello Everyone! I just got a new account and it's my very first one. I wanted to know what report I should run to bill for my services? Do you guys run a monthly posting report? How do you make sure he's giving you all the eob's? Can someone help me with this process.whats the best report to run at the end of the month?Thanks
and I did reply to you about the post I made back in November. Maybe you have a good memory but you must have a vision problem.
I am not a coder however if I can get advice on something and get paid for it why not? You don't need to be a certified coder nowadays. Everything is available on line! I already got the information and billed it out!
Good luck and after this I need to call to increase my E&O, yikes lol.
