Provides critical UB-04 training and serves as a reference for coders, billers, auditors, and accounting staff who have the responsibility for preparing and reviewing accurate documents for claims submission.

 

The Handbook can reduce revenue loss and speed up claims processing to payers by increasing the level of knowledge between coders, billers and everyone else involved in the revenue cycle. It teaches individuals how to complete a facility UB-04 billing form, and contains vignettes that explain the billing office process, its components and reporting nuances.

 

Readers who follow the identified steps can significantly reduce the data rework on print and electronic form submissions and increase the speed and acceptance of claims. Hospitals and other care providers can maximize claim processing performance and revenue recovery and improve their revenue cycle.

 

"...a clear and concise guidebook....works equally well as a teaching tool for new billers or a reference guide for experienced ones." --Hugh Rose, Corporate Treasurer, Palos Community Hospital, Palos Heights, IL

"Billing and coding conventions are complex, but well explained in this handbook. I encourage HIM, PFS and all other revenue cycle staff to read this insightful analysis." --Daniel J. Coffield, MBA, CMCP, FHFMA, VP & CFO, Trinity-Health, Novi, MI

"Great billing office resource - right on target. An excellent training tool for academic settings and provider billing offices!" --Glenn A. Fosdick, President and CEO, The Nebraska Medical Center, Omaha, NE
