FAQs

What is medical billing?

Medical billing is the process of submitting health insurance claims on behalf of a patient to various health insurance payers to acquire payment for services provided by a medical facility.

What is the occupational outlook for medical billers?

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the job outlook for medical billers will increase 8% between 2020-2026 – a growth rate higher than average.

How much do medical billers make?

AAPC reports (in 2022) the median pay for a medical biller with a CPB (Certified Professional Biller) credential was $56,981.

Why is medical billing training and certification important?

Medical billers follow strict processes to ensure that payment requests are submitted the correct way to receive payment promptly. Without the knowledge of these processes, healthcare provider reimbursement may be compromised.

Medical billing training and certification are important because they not only help you gain the knowledge you need for success in the profession, but they also provide ways for you to prove to employers that you have the skills needed to perform the job. Industry certifications can help your resume stand out from other job applicants and could make the difference in you getting an interview and ultimately a job. According to the AAPC, Certified Professional Biller (CPB™) certification "demonstrates a professional's working knowledge to support cleaner claim submission, faster reimbursement, fewer denials, and better run practices and facilities."

What is the difference between medical billing and medical coding?

Medical billing and coding are separate processes, but both are important regarding receiving payment for healthcare services. Medical billers are mainly responsible for submitting patient records to government agencies and insurance companies for services that have been provided in the care of the patient. Medical coders gather information on patient records and assign the proper codes for patient diagnosis, which are then used by medical billers to submit claim forms.
