Couverture de l’ouvrage Workbook for Fordney's Medical Insurance and Billing

Get hands-on practice in medical insurance billing and coding! Corresponding to the chapters in Fordney's Medical Insurance and Billing, 16th Edition, this workbook provides realistic exercises that help you apply concepts and develop the critical thinking skills needed by insurance billing specialists. Review questions reinforce your understanding of your role and responsibilities, and assignments ask you to complete claim forms by extracting information from patient records and properly selecting procedural and diagnostic codes. Not only will you master the CMS-1500 and 837P claim forms, but you will understand each stage of an insurance claim.

  • Study outlines focus your review by listing the key points for each chapter.
  • Performance objectives make learning easier by highlighting what you need to accomplish in each chapter.
  • Critical Thinking assignments are based on short, real-world vignettes, preparing you to work in a real medical office and allowing you to apply theory learned from the textbook.
  • Updated mock fee schedules present the latest information available, for use in completing forms and activities.
  • Expanded coverage of inpatient insurance billing includes ICD-10 coding and CMS coding, ensuringthat you are prepared to work in healthcare facility settings as well as the physician's office and outpatient settings.
  • Updated information on general compliance issues, HIPAA, the Affordable Care Act, and coding reflects changes to the Fordney's Medical Insurance and Billing, 16th Edition text.
