One of the most asked for items from
students of
Medical
Billing Course.com has been an additional
excercise in calculating copayments and
deductibles.
Kiera Reed, Medical Billing Course Graduate,
received
a 100% grade on Chapter 2 of the medical
billing
course, which consists of 5 problems in
calculating
copayments and deductibles, but was still
among
many, many students asking for more!
"The
calculations are fun and understanding them is
important and provides confidence," says
Kiera.
Medical
Billing Course.com released its
new "Calculating Copayments and
Deductibles" chapter
today, thanks to Senior MBC Instructor and
author, Lisa Bentler.

"There are way too many people out there
posing as "experts" in this field. You would
be surprised which companies/associations are
flat out lying to the public just for profit. I
want to speak to as many people as possible during
the month of June, and then in July I will be
releasing an article based upon my conversations and
my research, at which time I will be exposing
companies/associations for what they really
are. This is going to make
several "organizations" very nervous --- as it
should!

| Be Careful About Which "Associations" You Associate With |
 |
Don't choose a Medical Billing Association just
because they are listed at the top of Google or
Yahoo! They find their way to the top of these
search engines due to content and NOT
CREDIBILITY!
There are legitimate associations and there are
non-legitimate associations and
telling
the
difference can be extremely difficult if you have not
been in this field for a long time.
A legitimate medical billing association will
represent your needs legislatively, such as
www.hbma.org. A "non-legitimate" association
will attempt to sell you your pick of several
seemingly "inexpensive software programs", which
many
medical billing business owners know are not
adequate in a medical billing business setting.
These "associations" also sometimes sell quasi-courses in medical billing, which oftentimes
disappoint the student because the course is
actually a "lead in" to buying a software program
in which they are a reseller of and gain to make a
profit from. If you find an "association" selling
these programs, understand you have run
across a "reseller" and not an association!
Buyer Beware! We will be covering more on
this topic in future issues.

Norma Tovar & Lara Seaton
Medagent Outsource Solutions
Hutto, Texas
We both wanted to start our own home business
for years but could never really find the "right
one." After researching we came across the
ideal business that would utilize each of our
individual professional experiences ----
medical billing.
Norma is an RN whose career included work involving
insurance companies and medical necessity
review. Lara was in higher education
management, primarily in records. Their
combined backgrounds in the medical and
management fields were the perfect mix of skills
to
form and grow their company, Medagent
Outsource Solutions.
Although Norma and Lara's careers provided
important knowledge and skills, neither had
actual experience in medical billing. Their
research brought them to Medical
Billing Course.com and they both became
students. "We both found the program to be
very comprehensive and, as a result, learned
a great deal about what we were getting into," says
Lara, "We often refer back to course materials as a
wonderful resource."
Norma also completed the "Understanding
HIPAA" course from Medical
Billing Course.com and uses the knowledge
gained as the Compliance Officer for the
business.
A couple of months after opening their doors for
business, Norma and Lara signed their first
practice consisting of occupational, physical
and speech therapists. "We are happy to
report that we are also close to signing another
client and have two additional prospective clients
lined up," says Lara.
