"If I don’t have the opportunity to
read the Federal Register every night (don’t
we all?), I can count on Part B News to provide
me with the current concepts, the new rules and
valuable outlooks on the complexities of the constantly
changing environment of the Medicare program as
well as analysis of the effects that these changes
have on the viability of a healthcare provider.
I strongly believe that staying up to date in
our profession depends on publications such as
Part B News. Missing this sort of information
can lead to – well, failure!"

"I am a billing manager. for Lake Success
Urological Associates, a busy practice of 5 urologists
in Lake Success, NY. There's not enough time in
the day to go to seminars and read a lot of material
from other organizations. Part B News tells me
what I need to know. I have been reading Part
B News for years, I find it very informative.
It keeps me updated with all guidelines, coding,
billing issues necessary to do my job. It's my
back-up when I tell my doctors about changes,
because there it is in black and white.
Medicare is the backbone which most insurances
base their guidelines on. Part B News gives me
the information in submitting clean claims not
only for Medicare but for all insurance to the
best of my ability.
A major part of my job is to stay informed, keep
my doctors and staff updated and Part B News is
a main source of information. In my opinion, I
think Part B News is a must for any medical office."

"I
like Part B News because it is up to date and
summarized well. I like glancing at the contents
box first to see which articles pertain to our
specialty. The articles are brief and to the point
so I don't have to read pages of information to
find out exactly what I need to know. I also know
that I can count on Part B News to give me updates
on fee schedule changes, CCI changes, coding changes,
as well as other procedural and governmental updates.
It has been a good resource for us."

"Between ourselves and our predecessor, we have been
a subscriber to Part B News for more than eight years and
can say with a great deal of confidence that there is not
an issue that goes by that we cannot use to enhance our services
to our clients. Your information provides us an accurate and
up-to-date summary of the current events and issues. This
is most important in today's ever changing health care delivery
system. I have a number of other publications that constantly
come across my desk for consideration but in comparison, Part
B News still remains my first choice for industry information
that is reliable and accurate. I would highly recommend it."

"Dover Women's Health benefits greatly from Part B News.
It keeps us updated on any new rules and reminds of existing
recommendations. Part B News is easily readable for any of the
staff. I use it as an educational tool for other co-workers
in the office who are not coding/billing specialists, just so
that the information will become familiar to them, and that
they may understand some of the implications of coding/billing.
I personally am very happy that this information is available
on the web format and find it enlightening." |

me up-to-date with the latest policies, changes and anything
that might be coming in the future. I refer to issues of Part
B News almost daily. Having Part B News readily available on
the "net" is so convenient. I know immediately when
there is breaking news and I can electronically file my issues
for quick and easy reference. As a Medicare Billing Supervisor,
Part B News is one of my most utilized and dependable resources."

"Having worked in the
medical field for the past 20+ years, I have come across numerous
publications that state the latest and greatest. To date,
the Part B News has consistently been the most up-to-date
reliable source of information. I use this not only in the
billing aspect of our practice but as a manager as well. I
would highly recommend Part B News to any manager not currently
using it; I believe it to be the most useful of all publications
I have seen."

"As far as I'm concerned
Part B News is a "must" for every medical practice. It provides
detailed insight into the new upcoming changes slated for
CMS and Medicare before you hear about it from your local
carrier. Part B News also provides crucial information pertaining
to many other facets of the industry. Part B News is crucial
in helping an organization to be proactive and to plan well
in advance for any upcoming industry changes. Needless to
say, that is a tremendous advantage, especially in today's
business environment."

"Part B News has been
one of my favorite trade publications for many years (please
don't ask "HOW MANY years?"!!). It is an extremely reliable
source of timely and relevant information. Part B News provides
billing information that the average citizen would most likely
otherwise miss as we do not have the time to read all governmental
publications. There also is a wealth of information shared
by peers throughout the country. While other publications
may hit my desk and never be opened, I religiously review
the Part B News every week - just in case...."

"Part B News in considered
my "Bible" when it comes to keeping up with Medicare. Each
time I get an issue I immediately scan the "In this Issue"
on the front page to see the topics then I turn to the back
page and check out the "Part B News Briefs". I highlight the
topics that I think affect our billing office and make sure
they get to the right person(s) that would be affected the
most. It's also great to get this publication as it puts a
lot of Medicare rules and guidelines in a more simpler language
so we can absorb better."

"We have subscribed
to Part B News since 1998. This publication is a great resource
for our practice. We receive the latest news on Medicare,
generally before it even hits the carrier website. All of
the changes are presented in an easy-to-understand format.
The website is super. We have access to breaking news and
have downloaded many helpful documents. The Part B News is
full of tips for billing; the articles clarify many of the
troublesome areas coders encounter on a daily basis. There
are links to valuable websites for further information. Our
doctors and coders are kept up-to-date on CMS policy changes.
The cost of the subscription is definitely money well spent.
I'm not sure any office can afford to be without it!"

"...Last week in a meeting
I held with my employees we were discussing the volumes of
reading that we receive and how to manage our time to read
all of it. We do the coding and billing for 185 providers
in over 30 specialties. There were just a few reference materials
that I insisted that everybody make time to read and Part
B News made the short list. For me, it is a resource that
can be trusted to provide accurate information and it simplifies
regulations to make it easier for us to understand. I don't
know how anybody could manage any part of a business office
in healthcare without it."
