PC Terms in Medical Billing Explained
In medical billing, professional components (PC) are billed separately from technical components, particularly in services like radiology or lab tests, where both the provider’s interpretation and the equipment used are involved.
For example, a radiologist bills for the PC of interpreting an X-ray, while the hospital bills for the technical component (TC).
