Competent, well-trained medical billers are vital to the financial success of the professional healthcare services claims process. With increasing reimbursement pressures in the healthcare industry, there is a growing need for organizations to hire highly trained, highly skilled medical billers. As a result, professionals with an understanding of medical insurance, reimbursement methodologies, and the claims process are currently in high demand.
As a CPB-certified professional, you will enter the job market with proven abilities to submit claims compliant with respect to government regulations and private payer policies. You’ll follow up on claim statuses, resolve claim denials, submit appeals, post payments and adjustments, and manage collections.
To earn a CPB certification, you must pass the CPB exam, a test of medical billing proficiency with questions that assess your understanding of the types of insurance plans, local and national coverage determinations, and more. The Certified Professional Biller (CPB) credential validates your ability to maintain various aspects of the revenue cycle with specific focus on patient and payer billing and collections. You will be fully trained — not just to pass the certification exam, but with the training and expertise needed to thrive on the job from day one.
