Why is entering the correct codes important for patient billing? Give an example of when the incorrect code might be entered and the consequences.

A rejected claim has been disallowed for the reason that of errors. An insurance company might disregard a claim for the reason that a medical billing specialist erroneously input patient or cover information. Once a medical billing professional amends the mistakes on a disallowed claim they can pass it again for dispensation with an insurance company.
