A.  What is Medical Billing:

Medical billing is the process of submitting and following up on claims to insurance companies in order to receive payment for services rendered by a healthcare provider. The same process is used for most insurance companies, whether they are private companies or government-owned insurance.

For several decades, medical billing was done almost entirely on paper. However, with the advent of medical practice management software also known as health information systems it has become possible to efficiently manage large amounts of claims. Many software companies have arisen to provide medical billing software to this particularly lucrative segment of the market.

The billing field has been challenged in recent years due to the introduction of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

HIPAA is a set of rules and regulations which hospitals, doctors, healthcare providers and health plans must follow in order to provide their services aptly and ensure that there is no breach of confidence while maintaining patient records.

Since 2005, medical providers have been urged to electronically send their claims in compliance with HIPAA to receive their payment.

Act protects health insurance of workers and their families when they change or lose a job. Calls for the electronic transmission of major financial and administrative dealings, including billing, electronic claims processing, as well as reimbursement advice.

Medical billing service providers and insurance companies were not the only ones affected by HIPAA regulations - many patients found that their insurance companies and health care providers required additional waivers and paperwork related to HIPAA.

As a result of these changes, software companies and medical offices spent thousands of dollars on new technology and were forced to redesign business processes and software in order to become compliant with this new act. If an insured claim is billed by another insured with a different name than that might be a big issue by the insurance companies.
