PART 1:  MEDICAL RECEPTIONIST/ FRONT OFFICE

Medical receptionists are the primary contact point between patients and medical personnel.
A medical receptionist's job duties include answering phones, maintaining patient check-in and answering
questions.  Medical receptionists can be employed at any location that provides medical care to the public
including hospitals, outpatient centers, and private medical offices. Jobs as medical receptionists were among
the fastest growing among professions in the United States in 2009.

A medical receptionist is the first person a client sees when he enters a medical facility. The receptionist
welcomes patients to the facility and answers preliminary non-medical questions for patients. The medical
receptionist schedules appointments, organizes the facility's calendars and is the liaison between medical
professionals and patients. Additional job responsibilities might include answering phones, locating and
organizing patient records and handling prescriptions.

Whether in a private office or in the public sector, you can make helping others a part of your career.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics jobs as medical assistants are expected to increase 35% from 2006
to 2016--considerably higher than average job growth. Medical receptionists will have many opportunities for
advancement into jobs such as medical assistants, nurses or medical office managers that require additional
qualifications and experience, the bureau says.

A medical scheduler is a person who arranges appointments for a physician in an office or hospital.
Although scheduling appointments is her main focus, there are other duties involved to help operate a medical
facility.  The primary duty for a medical scheduler is to schedule appointments for a doctor's office. Medical
schedulers usually coordinate with doctors, staff, nurses, patients and other medical departments while setting
up appointments over the phone or in person through the doctor's office window.  
When a problem persists regarding a booked schedule or when a patient shows up late for an appointment, the
medical scheduler has to find solutions to clear up the problem. If a patient does not show up for an
appointment, the medical scheduler has to notify the medical director about adjusting the schedule.
A scheduler may also cover emergency treatment, scheduling surgery, hospital stays, x-rays, physician's rounds,
and even contacting other medical facilities and insurance companies. Follow up visits and referrals.

Upon completion of this course, the student should  be able to:

CPT (Current Procedural Terminology) codes are numbers assigned to every task and service a medical
physician may provide to a patient including medical, surgical, radiology, laboratory, anesthesiology,
evaluation/management, and diagnostic services. They are then used by insurers to determine the amount
of reimbursement that a practitioner will receive by an insurer. Since everyone uses the same codes to
mean the same thing, they ensure uniformity

Knowledge of CPT coding can be put to use in medical offices or hospitals– both in records and billing,
hospital records departments, and health insurance companies. Being able to differentiate between
specific CPT coding requirements for different insurance providers is one area in which CPT coders are
able to help both patients and doctors. Without the proper CPT coding, many insurance claims are
denied. Reimbursements are determined by the correct CPT code, and can determine the practice
revenues.

Medical CPT coding can be an excellent stepping stone into a more lucrative, higher-level career.
