Introduction To Neonatology
Neonatology is a pediatric discipline that focuses on the medical treatment of newborn babies, particularly those who are sick or preterm. It is a hospital-based specialty, with the majority of cases occurring in neonatal critical care units. Primary patients are newborn babies who are unwell or need special medical care as a result of preterm, low birth weight, intrauterine growth restriction, congenital abnormalities (birth defects), sepsis, pulmonary hypoplasia, or birth asphyxia.
Why Should You Choose Swift In Your Neonatal Practice?
As a neonatal care practitioner, you are in charge of the tiniest patients who may offer the greatest problems. Premature infants, those who are underweight, or those who are battling a life-threatening medical condition need round-the-clock care to guarantee their safe return home. Families depend on you and your team to care for their kids, which is why dealing with complicated medical billing concerns may be distracting.
A medical billing and coding partner may manage your department’s financial operations, freeing you your time and resources to focus on patients and their families.
