Understanding MediSoft, 2/e contains instructional training in the MediSoft Patient Accounting computer program, as well as a simulated work program to help you experience the real life situations that a medical biller experiences. This book is created for use as either a stand-alone text for those wishing to learn MediSoft, or in conjunction with ICDC Publishing's Guide to Medical Billing and Coding. Some of the exercises in the simulated work portion of the book are based upon concepts learned in the Guide to Medical Billing and Coding (i.e., procedure and diagnosis coding, privacy issues, etc.). This text is designed to enable you to work through the material at your own pace. MediSoft is one of the most comprehensive and popular computerized medical billing software programs available today. The MediSoft Patient Accounting System not only creates claims for billing insurance carriers, but also keeps track of patient accounts and creates most of the forms necessary for running a medical office.

  • MediSoft Student CD available
  • Provides real life situations that a medical biller experiences
  • Includes concepts like; CPT and ICD-9-CM coding, privacy guidelines, patient record keeping, reception area duties, correspondence, and manual completion of claims
