Thanks for the list. Do you know of any popular medical billing hashtags? I follow #physician and #billing right now.
Adam, thanks for the hashtags. I don't believe there are any dedicated medicalbilling hashtags out there. Time to create one!
The closest I would suggest is #medicare and #icd10. #icd10 doesn't get too many posts right now, but as we get closer to the deadline in 2013, maybe the volume will grow.
On the internet, I also suggest:
1. WPC Code List

2. NUBC http://www.nubc.org/new.html
3. WEDI ICD-10

You can also add #healthplan #healthdiscount and #healthcompanies
Margerette
Health Plan Services
#HITsm is also another great, up and coming healthcare hashtag. It stands for "health IT social media" and revolves around discussions on healthcare integration and how social media can positively influence the objectives of the health IT industry.
