Medical billers have no clue what is actually going on behind the scenes of their software. In the following installments and this is mainly for you tech heads, we're going to show you exactly what goes on behind the scenes with your medical billing software with the main parts of the system. To cover everything would take a lifetime.

We'll be covering how patient files get put into the system and how they are ultimately access by a biller and placed into a work order to be billed. While this seems like a very simple process, it is actually quite complex and requires a lot of indexing and cross-referencing.
