It means giving codes to medical diagnoses and procedures, making sure insurance covers them, and following up on claims that have been denied or turned down.

Incorrect coding, lack of documentation, wrong insurance information, and missing or wrong patient information are all common medical billing and coding mistakes.

What are the benefits of outsourcing medical billing and coding?
