ICD Coding, Insurance Electronic Claim Submission, and Monthly Client Billing – Once a patient’s appointment is completed the services provided and outcome of their visits must be coded using ICD coding, a claim form must be submitted to the insurance company for payment, and any statements of remaining balances due must then be sent to the patient for payment. Clients ARM will code the patients visit using the appropriate ICD code and submit it to the insurance company for payment. Once the insurance company has processed the request, we will then submit a notice of the remaining balance to patient, and follow through with the pre-agreed upon payment arrangements or payment schedule, if one applies.
