MAST 2010 - Coding and Reimbursement

(3)
Medical Insurance plays an integral role in the financial well-being of every healthcare business.  This course is designed to emphasize the revenue cycle—ten steps that clearly identify all the components needed to successfully manage the medi­cal insurance claims process.  Administrative medical pro­fessionals navigate all aspects of this revenue cycle system.  This course will concentrate mainly on the outpatient physician office setting.  The learner will acquire an in-depth understanding of the rules and guidelines of a variety of health plans in order to submit proper documentation.  By becoming comfortable and familiar with this system you should find yourself more at ease with learning other systems encountered in the medical office. In addition, learning this system should increase your confidence when interviewing and starting a new career.

 

Prerequisite: MAST 1010  and MAST 1100  with a C or better.
