A simple and practical guide to how healthcare providers in the United States get paid for their work. This project explains how medical billing works, and how people from countries like Pakistan, India, and others help US doctors and clinics get paid by insurance companies.

Who is this for?

This project is for beginners who want to learn medical billing. If you are starting a job in billing, planning to become a virtual assistant, or just want to understand the system, this will help you. You don’t need any experience — just a will to learn.

This industry is so huge that if a project aimed to cover all of its aspects, it would most likely collapse under its own weight, unless it was heavily funded and organized by a big corp. Which is why I am covering only one aspect of it, although be assured that even this one aspect is so full of valuable knowledge that it will definitely help you in many other fields as well.
Let's get started.
