Breakdown of Doctos
DMK:
Sounds like your instructor was trying to create a hypothetical situation for the students (and you would have to pull some somewhat random figures out for a "for instance" situation). There are far too many variables to come up with the "site" you're looking for, not to mention that doctor's would have to provide the information, and why would they?

Let me explain my position. One of my instructors indicated that podiatry produces on average a claim amount of $540.00 where as chiropractor generates, on average, a claim amount of $125.00. I am wondering where this instructor would have generated this information.

Besides these numbers seem off, and I bill for both podiatry AND chiropractic. Of course I don't know what part of the country you are in. :)

Just want to clarify here, we're talking about the amount charged rather than the amount reimbursed, right? We know a lot more about reimbursement rates than charge rates because charge rates were not required to be reported prior to the ACA, and even now I think only hospitals need to report this data.
cflorez:
Yes. The amount charged.
Let me ask this of you veteran medical billers. I heard of many medical billers say that mental health industry (as an example) was a pain for them. To much work for so little reimbursement. As a new medical biller how do I know what provider specialty is the better ones to be in.

Get whatever you can to start..and one at a time.
