For my capstone project, I created a web application for neuropsychologists to calculate certain billing codes for billing purposes.

A simple calculator to code technician-supported neuropsychological assessment in clinical settings; developed for neuropsychologists.
Image taken from the following website:
Neuropsychologists who accept insurance must submit superbills (an itemized form containing patient visit information) to Medicare and insurance companies to receive payment for services. This web-based application is a simple calculator for determining the appropriate units for technician-provided assessment services, which is perhaps the most popular or most preferred method of completing testing.

- math
- flask
- HTML
- AWS
The current project was inspired by problems I encountered in my professional career, namely a desire for increased efficiency in calculating units for insurance billing while working in a clinical service line. This calculator reflects select Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes (specifically 96138, 96139, and 96146), which were updated on January 1, 2019 by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).
This application is highly convenient for neuropsychology services that have multiple technicians, providers, or staff, as it can be used from any location and for any client. Neither patient health information nor user registration are required for use.
For more information about billing codes, consult the CMS website.

My website also contains helpful links for information about CPT codes, coding changes, and links to insurance companies' websites regarding neuropsychological assessment billing.
