Coding Resources, Anyone?

Our support team gets a lot of calls from individual practitioners looking for resources on how to do their CMS form billing--which codes to use and the like.  AcuBase Pro gives users the ability to do billing, just as Microsoft Word gives one the platform to do word processing.  But what you put on that page depends upon your own training, your own situation, your own needs.  It follows that we cannot tell you how to bill, which codes to use, or even where to put what on the CMS form.  However, we’d very much like to be able to recommend paid and (preferably) free resources in this area.  

AcuBase Pro staff and users highly recommend Flashcode, a free web-based coding database (http://www.icd9coding1.com).  For more detailed courses for those doing billing and coding, you may want to check out paid courses, such as those offered at Audioeducator.com (http://www.audioeducator.com/industry.php?id=11 for courses on medical billing and coding). A Google search for billing and coding information will surely provide much more, but we’re most interested in knowing what you use or recommend.  So if you have any further recommendations for where to go, on the web or otherwise, please let us know by commenting below.
