Medical Coder Job Description

In facilities where medical billing and coding job duties are split between two individuals, the medical coder job description is more concerned with translating patient conditions and doctors’ medical treatments into universal medical codes for translation by various parties.

Medical coding specialists are responsible for job duties such as:

  • Reviewing patient medical records
  • Coding treatment information using Common Procedure Terminology (CPT) codes
  • Communicating with medical billing specialists to ensure treatment codes are accurately received

Medical Biller Job Description

When medical billing and coding duties are split, medical billing job duties consist of using CPT codes to assemble and coordinate reimbursement claims for third-party payers. Medical billers interact with insurance companies and with patients to ensure accurate, streamlined billing and payment.

Medical billers are responsible for job duties such as:

  • Receiving patient treatment codes to use in assembling reimbursement claims
  • Creating reimbursement claims and transfer to third-party payers
  • Coordinating reimbursement activities with payers
  • Billing patients for medical services

Medical Billing and Coding Work Environment

Most medical billers and coders are employed by hospitals. However, they also work in other settings, including:

  • Physician Practices
  • Specialty Clinics
  • Surgical Facilities
  • Nursing Outpatient Facilities
  • Nursing Homes
  • Homecare Facilities
  • Insurance Providers
  • Medical Research Facilities

Medical billing and coding specialists usually work in office settings. A computer, a telephone and appropriate documents are all used on a daily basis.
