Working at home as a Medical Biller is a one of
the homebased business ideas I can strongly
recommend. Being a Medical Biller and a Coder
myself, this kind of business absolutely can be
done at home. I started my Billing and Coding
business 4 years ago. It required me a lot of my
time and my effort. Starting the business,
marketing your services is no easy work.

But as long as you have the commitment,
experience and knowledge, then I don't think
you have any reason why you can not make it
happen.

Working at home as a Medical Biller is a
professional service that you provide to medical
health providers and other allied health
providers. You help them get reimbursed with all
their services rendered to their patients. Here are
the things you need to be ready and know at
least has 90% knowledge on:

  1. HIPAA Compliancy
  2. OIG's Recommendations for Billing
    Service and Small Practice
  3. Medicare and Medicaid Policies, Guidelines
    and Local/National Determination
    Coverage
  4. Medical Terminology
  5. General Anatomy and Physiology
  6. ICD9 Codes
  7. CPT Codes
  8. HCPCS Codes
  9. DRG Codes
  10. Each Insurance Payor's Policies and
    Guidelines
  11. Fee Schedules and Contracting
  12. Credentialing and Network Participation
  13. Use of Proper Medical Modifiers
  14. Workman's Compensation
  15. Auto/No Fault Cases

If you have no experience or have no
background on Medical Billing and Coding, taking
the course is your best decision to make if you
want to do this as a homebased business. Make
sure the above scopes are covered in the course
syllabus.
