Hepatology Billing Services

More and more physicians are reporting dissatisfaction due to the many hours of paperwork involved in their jobs that both create stress and deny patients the time and attention they deserve. Medical billing for hepatology is a complicated process that requires a considerable amount of time to deal with the hectic paperwork, but it is key to the success of the practice, as it determines the compensation received for services provided to patients.

The sure ways solutions provides full revenue cycle management (RCM) so that primary care physicians can have optimized hepatology billing services without having to manage them themselves. We have a staff of certified billers and coders who are experienced in their fields so outsourcing gastroenterology hepatology billing and coding services to us results in fewer claim denials and rejections—and significantly more revenue.

The details of what kind of physician and what kind of medical facility must be specified in the coding for a claim, but it must also specify what level of diagnosis was done, whether there has been a previous diagnosis, etc. By the time a patient is seen by a hepatologist, there is likely to be a trail of examinations beginning with the family doctor. Each of these must be correctly coded, or the payer is likely to deny the claim as a duplication.

In an effort to simplify medical billing (and cut their costs), payers have bundled the expected items for certain procedures into one code. This can make billing simpler, if the bundle code exactly matches what was done; but there are often additional steps taken or substitutions required, which must be coded in order to be compensated. However, the coding must then also indicate why it was necessary, in order to avoid the appearance of duplicate charging. It isn’t allowable to simply bill separately for items in a bundle because that may create an over-billing situation, which falls under “fraud,” legally. So, hepatology billing companies understand it and help providers solve these problems.
