I am new to the billing world. I have been trying to learn how to fill out the CMS 1500. I am having difficulty figuring out the Provider ID and NPI/non-npi codes what is the best way to find and understand this information?
This information is very helpful. I do not have any experience with CPT/HPCS, ICD-9, and modifier codes.
QuoteThis information is very helpful. I do not have any experience with CPT/HPCS, ICD-9, and modifier codes. You are going to need to start at the beginning. If you have not already taken a course / classes I suggest you do so. The coding is the backbone to telling the carriers what was done and what was wrong and determines reimbursement.
We are billing for mental health services. The amount of providers would just depend on the number of clients we have with insurance. I have found a program that is electronic that assists with filling in the CMS 1500 form but nothing more than if I were to write it out. I will look into finding a billing class. If you guys have any suggestions please let me know. Thank you again for all of your help!!
Also the field is likely to grow because due to the ACA,
