Medical billing and coding encompasses a wide range of responsibilities—from patient registration and claim reimbursement to final payment delivery to the provider. Navigating this process requires close collaboration among billers, coders, insurance companies, patients, and various healthcare professionals.

Although often grouped together as a single discipline, billing and coding are distinct roles that work in tandem to support the healthcare revenue cycle. If you’re considering a career in medical billing and coding, it’s essential to understand that these are separate professions, each demanding unique skills and personality traits. Terry breaks down the individual roles and how they work together to keep the system running smoothly.
