What are accounts payable?
Accounts payable is the liability (debt) account a company uses to show the total amount they owe to outside vendors that will be paid off in 12 months or LESS (Edit: but see below).For example, if a company buys a computer for $3,000 on account and will be paying the computer off in 12 months or less, the transaction is recorded as an Account Payable.*remember, this is for accounts that will be paid off in 12 months or less, anything longer, such as 13 months must be recorded as a Note Payable, but only if the company owing the money has signed a written promissory note promising to pay. If there is no Note evidencing a debt, there is no basis for recording a Note Payable (edit 8/29/2012)Also edited 8/29/12 to add:Ordinarily, vendor bills for all non-compensation or non-tax amounts owed for expenses incurred, or inventory or materials acquired, in the ordinary course of business are posted to Accounts Payable until they are paid off, because the presumption is that ordinary trade expense bills will all be paid within the accounting cycle, unless there is clear evidence to the contrary, in which the debt can be shown as a non-current payable.When a bill sitting in Accounts Payable is finally paid, the Accounts Payable account is debited to show the decrease in the company's liabilities (debts).Some amounts that a business can owe are not posted to Accounts Receivable. Certain big items, such as payroll and taxes due, get their own liability accounts, Wages Payable and Taxes Payable. The same is true for loan repayments due to a bank. But these are large and important items, and it's better bookkeeping to separate them from the Accounts Payable account. (end of edit)In other words...Accounts payable is money that a business owes.

What is the difference between accounts payable and accounts receivable for medical billing?
Accounts payable and accounts receivable are the same for any business, whether service, merchandising, or even medical billing. An account payable is any account that the company or business owes to another entity. It is a liability account and goes under liabilities until the balance is paid in full. An account receivable is just the opposite. Is the account balance of what another entity owes you. Account receivable is an asset account and goes under assets on the balance sheet. Both accounts receivable and accounts payable can be listed as either current or non-current, depending on the length of time required to satisfy the debt. For medical billing let us just say that an account receivable would be an account that a patient (or even government entity) may owe you. Account payable is what you owe the another entity.
