My Reflection On Reimbursement In Health Care

I learned a lot from going over this coding and billing module. I had no idea that as a dietitian, I would have to be in charge of obtaining my reimbursement. I think that it seems fair that a separate service such as lab work when you go to the hospital is billed separately. Furthermore, I was aware of my own health care provider, but I did not know all of the specifics. This powerpoint provided me with a lot of useful information. I believe coding and billing impacts dietetics practice because it is important to have a standardized system that works to collect reimbursement for service. Uniformity among systems creates a system that is well understood on both ends, which leave little room for confusion or misunderstanding regarding payment.
