Product Description
The ABC Codes are built upon the belief that this system greatly improves the entrance of CAM and expanded nursing services into mainstream healthcare. The codes provide the infrastructure needed for insurance companies to measure the effectiveness of these services side by side with conventional medicine treatments, thus facilitating responsible patient access to integrated healthcare. This coding system fulfills the need of CAM and nurse providers to accurately communicate procedures and services. The ABC Codes were also built to meet the business requirements of practitioners who file their own electronic healthcare claims to insurance companies. The CAM and Nursing Coding Manual provides a complete overview of the structure codes, samples of the HCFA 1550 and IB-92 forms, how insurance companies use codes, how the system works to support CAM and Nursing, and much more.

Reader Reviews
Alternative Link is amazing. I have known about them for 8 years and watched them grow. They have taken the complexity of insurance coding and simplified it. And the best part is that they have developed codes for complementary and alternative medical practices. This hadn't been done. The CAM and Nursing Coding Manual is an example of this work. It is simple, concise straight forward because it is based on the ABC codes. It is easy to read and not hard to follow. It is a must for healthcare providers particularly those who need an overview of the process. It is the future of CAM.
