You Are Born To Be A Medical Biller

By Alice Coldman


If you work in the medical billing industry, you may have recently noticed a lot of jobs opening up for medical billers and coders. A lot of companies are firing their in house coders because they know that they are not skilled in ICD-10. If you are not qualified to do ICD-10 coding, you will most likely be out of a job.

If you are thinking about a career in billing, it is important to understand the basics as well as the advanced techniques that medical billers use. For starters, medical billers often don't have any idea what the future will hold for them. The jobs are plentiful, but you must be knowledgeable in order to hold the position.

Medical coders often attend workshops together in order to learn more. If you are not into education, then you are really going to hate this job. It is not a job where you can go in everyday and expect the same things to be going on all of the time. Medical billing today involves people wanting to do something unique with their life.

If you feel like you have a calling to work in the industry, than it's a blessing. Statistics show that 17% of all medical billing jobs go unfilled each year because the industry lacks qualified workers. A qualified worker is someone that has been fully trained and certified in ICD-10. You should be able to get high revenues for your employer.

If this is your first "rodeo", then it's time to educate yourself. It is time to ask yourself what is most important in your life. This is an occupation in which your job must come first before anything else. Many billers spend 8 to 12 hour a day finding the right codes for their claims. If you submit the wrong claim today, you will most likely have it rejected 1, 2 or 10 times.

If you are like me, you probably want to learn more about medical billing and coding. It can take years for someone to become an expert in coding. Remember that a lot of people don't understand billing as much as they should. It takes a person of great intelligence to learn as much as they can about the topic. Remember that you can learn a lot of information as you walk along in life.

If you are looking for a job, then billing may be a good route for you. Many men and women find the field to be fascinating because you are never bored. There is something always new to learn in the field. Medical billers will often teach you a lot about the business if you want them to. It is a great field to be involved in if you are willing to take the time out to do it.

A lot of billers today are finding themselves working at home and in the job place as well. Some billers get to work from home 1 day a week. However, stay at home medical billers are often left unemployed. They often lack the necessary skills that a professional billing company requires.
