What is a Superbill?

Last updated on 14 Sept, 2025

A Superbill is a detailed receipt of the services that you provided your patient. 

The Superbill needs to include:

  • Basics about your patient–like name, date of birth, address, phone number–and basics about your practice (e.g., your office address).

  • Provider Information: This includes the doctor's name and NPI number.

  • ICD-10 Code for the patient's diagnoses.

  • CPT Codes: List all codes that correspond to the services you have provided your patient.

  • Fees: List the associated charges for the services provided. (Always list your full usual and customary fees.)

  • Payments: List any payments the patient made towards the services.

Here is an example for illustration purposes only.

Superbills provide all the information an insurance company needs to create a healthcare claim.

Patients who submit Superbills to their insurance companies can potentially get reimbursed for your services. Some practitioners even submit them on behalf of their patients. The important thing:

  • Any reimbursement provided by an insurance company goes directly to the patient.

  • So even when you submit a Superbill, you still collect payment from the patient generally before or during the time of service.
