Priority Medical Billing, Inc. is dedicated to providing our clinicians with information that will assist them in running a successful practice. This includes changes to coding practices. It is imperative to stay up to date on coding changes as incorrect billing can drastically effecting incoming revenue. It is because of this that PMB always monitors these changes and promptly informs our clinicians when changes are relevant to their specific practice.
