What is Medical Coding?

Medical coding and billing are essential processes in healthcare administration that involve translating medical services and procedures into codes for billing and insurance purposes.

ဝ Medical Coding: This is the process of converting healthcare diagnoses, procedures, medical services, and equipment into universal alphanumeric codes. These codes are used for medical billing, insurance claims, and data analysis. There are several coding systems, such as ICD-10-CM (International Classification of Diseases, 10th Edition, Clinical Modification) for diagnoses and CPT (Current Procedural Terminology) for procedures. 


ဝ Medical Billing: Once the medical services are coded, medical billing involves creating and submitting claims to insurance companies or patients for reimbursement. It includes verifying patient information, checking insurance coverage, coding services accurately, submitting claims, and following up on unpaid claims or denials.

Together, medical coding and billing ensure that healthcare providers receive accurate reimbursement for the services they provide, maintain proper documentation for legal and financial purposes, and comply with healthcare regulations and insurance requirements.
