| Abstract
|
:
|
Medical Billing and Coding Demystified clearly explains the practices used by medical offices, hospitals, and healthcare facilities to encode medical services in order to receive payment from government agencies and insurance companies. Like other entries in this bestselling series, this self-teaching guide uses a building-block approach that allows readers to learn at their own pace and test themselves along the way. No previous medical or accounting training or experience is necessary to benefit fromMedical Billing and Coding Demystified, and the book can be used as a classroom textbook or as a complement to larger texts. --Publisher
