As a billing specialist you are responsible to billing claims to the third-party payers.
defon

Answer:

The goal of the medical biller is to ensure that the provider is properly reimbursed for their services. In the pursuit of this goal, errors, both human and electronic, are unfortunately unavoidable. Since the process of medical billing involves two incredibly important elements (namely, health and money), it’s important to reduce as many of these errors as possible. In this brief course, we’ll introduce you to some common errors in the medical billing practice.

Before we jump into that discussion, however, let’s review the difference between a rejected and denied claim.

Lead time bias is best described as:A)an actually longer survival time for persons identified during a screening program because
dem82 [27]

The correct answer is D) An apparently longer survival time among persons identified during a screening program because they were identified at an earlier stage of their disease

Explanation:

In medicine, screening is a method to diagnose diseases even if the person has no symptoms; due to this, screening is related to earlier detection of diseases than traditional diagnosis based on symptoms. Early diagnosis does not imply longer survival time, but it can lead to doctors or individuals to perceive the survival time was longer, this phenomenon is known as lead-time bias.

For example, a person diagnosed with cancer at an early stage when he is 45 years old,  dies at 50 years old, this means his survival time was 5 years. If the same person is diagnosed at 48 years based on symptoms and he dies at 50 it seems the survival time is less (2 years); however, this is biased as the diagnosis did not change the effect of the disease. According to this, lead-time bias can be described as "an apparently longer survival time among persons identified during a screening program because they were identified at an earlier stage of their disease".

diameter of field at 40x is equal to 5.6

diameter of field at 80 x = ?

Field of view is the circle you see when you look through the ocular lens of the microscope.

when you  use  80 X                    

then the diameter of the field of view becomes =

                                           = \dfrac{5.6}{2}

                                           = 2.8 mm

so, when we use 80 X the diameter becomes half of 40 X
