New Hampshire Medical Billing and Coding Guide
Most medical billing and coding processes takes place for patients eligible for Medicare, and in New Hampshire, the carrier for this government-funded health insurance program is NHIC. NHIC is a member of CMS—Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services—which handles the processing of claims of beneficiaries from state to state. Through NHIC’s website, medical providers can get access to guides, forms, and other online tools to help them accomplish the process smoothly and correctly.
The Medical Billing and Coding Process
Everything from the diagnosis to the services rendered to the patient has to be coded into the billing form. This should be easy enough, except diagnoses and even services rendered should be translated to their corresponding codes on the forms. Of all the thousands of known diseases and diagnoses, it is quite impossible to memorize each code, so a list called the ICD-9-CM was created. This database lists all known diagnoses and their corresponding codes. Procedures rendered to the patient have their own unique five-digit codes as well, and for this, a separate database was created, the CPT or Current Procedural Terminology. NHIC’s website helpfully provides links to the updated lists of both the ICD-9-CM and the CPT.
Originally, claims are submitted via paper forms, but nowadays, most medical providers and insurance agencies prefer the faster online method. NHIC’s website also contains downloadable forms that can be printed out should the physician opt to submit a paper medical bill, as well as the link to the online submission portal, the EDI or Electronic Data Interchange.
Other pertinent links can be found on the site, depending on which Part of Medicare the patient is categorized into. Additionally, medical provider-centered helpful links like an annual fee scheduler, electronic funds transfer, and the CERT or the Comprehensive Error Rate Testing Center are also available.
