Publisher's Synopsis
After a claim processes in medical billing, payment follows. Each payment is accompanied by an explanation of benefits, or EOB. The EOB is sent to the patient and the provider to show how the claim processed. It also lets the provider know whether any remaining balance is due by the patient. As a biller/coder, you want to review this documentation to verify that the claim has processed and paid correctly.
Understanding will play a major part in making sure that your cash is not among the millions of dollars that are sitting and growing interest in an account that is not yours. This book can:
- Help you find your cash/credit that is temporarily being held in the doctor's stash
- Pay less on medical expenses
- Request a refund that can be used to pay past, current, or future medical expenses
- Help you understand specific aspects of your benefits
- Help you know whether or not you are being billed correctly
