Understanding the Radiology Billing Landscape
Radiology billing presents unique challenges:
- Multiple Modalities: From X-rays and ultrasounds to CT scans and MRIs, each modality has specific coding requirements. Our team stays current on the latest coding guidelines for accurate claim submission across the entire radiology spectrum.
- Technical and Professional Components: Radiology bills encompass both the technical aspects (facility fee for equipment usage) and the professional component (radiologist's interpretation fee). We ensure proper separation and coding for each to maximize revenue capture.
- Correct Use of Modifiers: Modifiers play a critical role in capturing the nuances of radiology procedures. Our coders understand the appropriate use of modifiers for contrast administration, complex studies, or additional views, ensuring complete and accurate claims.
- Rapid Regulatory Changes: The world of healthcare coding is constantly evolving. BillingScapes prioritizes ongoing coder education to stay abreast of the latest updates from CMS and private payers.
