Why Chiropractic Billing Requires Specialized Attention
Chiropractic billing involves a specific set of codes and documentation requirements that differ from traditional medical billing. Here's what makes it unique:

BillingScapes ensures accurate E/M coding to maximize reimbursement for chiropractic services.
- Modifier Usage: Certain modifiers are essential for accurate chiropractic billing, such as those indicating new or established patient visits and specific manipulative techniques used. Our coders understand the proper application of modifiers to optimize reimbursement.
- Understanding Insurance Coverage: Chiropractic coverage varies significantly among insurance plans. BillingScapes stays current on insurance guidelines to ensure services are billed correctly and avoid claim denials.
