Orthopedic surgery or Orthopedics is the branch of medicine dealing with the conditions of the Musculoskeletal system - the bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, and muscles that are so essential to movement and everyday life.
Orthopedic billing depends on proper documentation before, during, and after a patient visit. The billing team needs to carefully document and charge for all Services provided. Errors like incomplete patient demographics entry or not prior- verifying the patient's eligibility could result in a rejected claim. In addition to authorization errors, not knowing insurer preferences and deadlines can also hamper revenue collection.
Compared to other specialties, orthopedic billing is complex and requires a deeper understanding of providers' Services. Nearly 35% of orthopedic surgery claims are incorrect, out of which 25% of medical claim gets rejected. Such high denial rates can lead to compromised revenue & patient care while bankrupting your orthopedic practice.
Although hiring an in-house billing team and properly training your team can help avoid severe fees and penalties, the orthopedic billing process is too complex to be sustained by an in-house team. One way to reduce stress on your staff and increase reimbursement is to outsource your billing & coding requirements to a technologically empowered billing company like RM Healthcare.
