Medical Billing and Coding Product Reviews

Cash perks plus cost savings: Get paid for adopting electronic medical billing

The most commonly recognized advantages of adopting electronic medical billing programs are postal fee savings, immediate notification in the case of the rejection of a claim, 98% coding and billing accuracy rate, payments received in one to two weeks as opposed to 45 days, streamlined office procedures and guaranteed HIPAA compliance.

However, there are two other financial benefits accruing from conversion from paper to medical practice management (MPM) software systems. The first is that the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (HITECH Act or "The Act") contains financial incentives designed to accelerate the uptake of electronic health record (EHR) systems by providers, and the second relates to the fact that research organizations are increasingly turning to using only electronic health records because this format enables data management software to quickly perform impressive feats of data manipulation.

“Grant money and incentive programs are available, for example, and they want data in the electronic form,” points out Francine Wheelock, PT, MPA, manager of clinical systems for Maine General Health. Medical data owners who have not gone electronic will miss out on these cash perks as well as the savings associated with reduced labor and supply expenses.


Best-in-Class Medical Billing and Coding Providers:

  • Offer one software product with one transmission, one protocol and one support number
  • Utilize the ICD-9-CM or HCPCS index medical coding standards
  • Employ certified medical billing and coding specialist


Top Considerations Before Selecting Medical Billing and Coding Provider:

While most medical billing programs bring you into compliance with the increased security standards and ANSI billing format sections of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), some software provides only partial HIPAA compliance. Discuss this aspect of the software solution capability with each vendor.

Medical Billing and Coding
Definition: Medical codes are published codes such as HCPCS and ICD-9-CM that are used when submitting a claim to an individual’s insurance company to indicate which services and products the health care provider is seeking payment for. These codes are also used by governments and private healthcare organizations for research purposes to gather statistical data about the treatment of certain conditions.
