    About this ebook

    Linda has worked in numerous small medical offices, large insurance billing offices and hospital billing offices for approximately twenty – five years.
    She has written this book to educate medical providers and their staff about the way medial offices network with the medical insurance companies in achieving payment for your claims.
    Medical Billing is very complicated and continues to become more so with each passing year. This is the way the medical insurance companies hold on to their money like glue.
    When you finish reading this guide your medical office will have sample letters to use to appeal claims to the insurance companies.
    They will also have sample collection letters to use to mail to their patients who are behind in the payment of their bills.
    When an appeal letter is written correctly, formatted correctly and has all the information easily accessible by the insurance company it has a much higher chance of approval.

    I am an author and public speaker. I have almost 20 electronic books and 4 self-published books.
