This was a very comprehensive book however the authors have never started their own business; they tend to rely on interviews from several business owners across the country. The book is very organized but several sections assumes that reader will instantly understand all technical terms. I would suggest that the authors include actual forms as opposed to just referring to them, include 2-3 other formats of suggested letters and lengthen the appendix to more than 3 pages.
This is a good book for anyone looking to review the industry, not for those truly interested in starting their own company.

Gerber’s E-Myth theory works well for billing and claims processing startups: most billing services fail because billers are “technicians” with little knowledge about how to manage successful business.
Billing is an especially difficult business because it must succeed in an increasingly adversarial environment, where billing complexity creates opportunities for providers to commit fraud and for payers–to benefit at the expense of the providers. A naive outsourced billing office owner is helpless against insurance companies armed with significant resources devoted to denying reimbursement and including professionally managed processes and leading-edge technology.
Read two books before deciding to start your own billing service:
1) “Start Your Own Medical Claims Billing Service”
2) Gerber’s E-myth

This book served as a general overview of the billing from home business, but does not give details on getting started. Not a good book to rely on if your looking to start your own business.

I already knew I wanted to start my own medical billing business before buying this book. It has some great hints and tips for getting a business up and running. I plan on trying them!

This is an excellent book to start with…. it gave some basic information that one who has been in business will find boring, but never the less it created and completed the total picture of what it would take, and what is needed to start up a business…there were some chapters that were needed that gave the basics and a history of Medical Billing…. Great Book all the way around…….
