Infectious Disease Billing and Coding Services

Infectious disease practices address a broad spectrum of medical conditions and can operate in various settings, ranging from small independent practices to large hospitals, each requiring different medical coding. This complexity makes it challenging to manage a practice without professional, specialized infectious disease billing and coding services.

Outsource Your Medical Billing

While it might seem daunting to entrust such an important responsibility to an external company, many medical practices have discovered that outsourcing infectious disease medical billing services is the key to managing the constantly evolving medical codes and effectively working with payers. This ensures the practice is properly compensated for the services provided.

Medical Billing Issues Affecting Infectious Disease Practices

While all medical offices face challenges due to the complexity of the medical billing system, infectious disease practices may experience unique difficulties. These challenges include:

Challenges with Front Office Scheduling Functions

The revenue cycle management (RCM) for infectious disease billing begins with scheduling, which involves verifying the insurer’s coverage and allowable charges. Utopia Medical Billing’s advanced software ensures your office stays current with the latest changes to codes and individual payer policies.

Keeping Up with Government Incentives and Offers

Infectious diseases receive significant attention from government agencies, and it’s crucial for vaccination and treatment protocols to be swiftly implemented when an epidemic is identified. Physicians already have their hands full with patient care, so trying to manage the billing and coding for each new development can be an overwhelming distraction. This is why outsourcing to a specialized infectious disease medical billing company focused solely on coding and billing is such an effective solution.

Managing Denial and Rejection of Claims

Claims can be rejected due to minor clerical errors, but they are almost certainly denied if the coding is inaccurate or doesn’t align with payer expectations. Over-coding and under-coding often occur when office staff is unfamiliar with recent changes or the specific bundling practices of each payer. Utopia Medical Billing’s certified billing specialists are well-trained in the latest coding practices and skilled at identifying common errors, ensuring corrections are made and clean claims are submitted.
