Medical Billing and Coding Issues for Traumatology Surgery

Traumatology Billing is More Complicated than that Most Medical Specialties For Several Reasons, These Are Just a Few of them.

Complicated Procedure Billing

Traumatology surgeries often involve a wide range of procedures, making the coding process more complex. Each service performed must be accurately coded to ensure proper compensation, but this requires detailed knowledge of the various surgical techniques used. Medical billers must be well-versed in these intricacies, ensuring that all required notations are included with the claim. Failure to comply with payer requirements can result in the entire claim being denied.

 

Global Surgery Packages

Global surgery packages are special medical billing codes that, used with the appropriate modifiers, the bill for the entire surgery, including pre-operative and post-operative care, which greatly simplifies the billing process. However, there are different packages depending on the period of care, and a great many variables come into play for each surgery, so it requires medical coders and billers to have training and experience with surgery so they can tell when anything is missed, or a service was done that isn’t included in the package. And then they must know how to denote the additional procedures correctly so that it is clear that it wasn’t included in the package.

 

Chronic Care

Rheumatologists often treat chronic conditions, which require complex billing and coding systems. The coding varies based on the condition being treated, the frequency of visits, and the number of chronic conditions a patient has. Billers must be meticulous about these details to ensure accurate coding; otherwise, claims could be rejected.

Insurance Reimbursement Rates

Mental health treatments are sometimes reimbursed at a lesser rate than short-term medical or surgical operations due to their extensive duration. Utopia Medical Billing handles this by negotiating with payers to receive the highest possible compensation for services performed.

Prior Authorization & EHR Integration

Billing may be a major burden, with procedures such as previous authorizations, insurance billing, and claim management eating up important time. Effective billing systems may considerably improve the productivity of a private practice, allowing therapists to focus on their therapeutic obligations. This is especially challenging for solitary practitioners who spend a large amount of time on things unrelated to patient care. Utopia Medical Billing streamlines this by handling these processes for you and utilizing EHR technologies that simplify billing and clinical notes.

Complex Coding

Accurate coding services for mental health services are crucial to avoid billing errors and denied claims. For example, using specific CPT codes like 90834 for a 45-minute psychotherapy session is essential. Utopia Medical Billing stays up-to-date with annual CPT code changes and expertly applies HBAI codes, ensuring accurate billing and smoother reimbursement. Implementing best practices in documentation and coding accuracy significantly contributes to the ability to submit clean claims, which is vital for minimizing denials and enhancing financial viability.
