Managing Coding & Reimbursement Challenges




Managing Coding & Reimbursement Challenges

 
As any physician will attest, no one wants to leave money on the table or be accused of submitting incorrect claims. And yet every year, medical practices are faced with the daunting task of understanding the newest coding and billing rules, many fail to educate themselves on the new guidelines. The result: lower revenue potential, increased denials and greater operating/administrative costs for the practice.

Adding to this substantial challenge is the scheduled implementation of ICD-10-CM diagnostic codes. The delayed implementation of ICD-10 underscores the magnitude of change and the amount of preparation required for an efficient transition. Furthermore,  practices are having to implement HEDIS and PQRS (P4P) Measurements to meet Quality of Care Regulations.

 
To take the guesswork out of this complex system and lead reimbursement teams in a smooth and effective changeover to ICD-10, AccuChecker Online offers an Internet database subscription service that covers:  

·         Procedures – CPT, Category II and HCPCS codes.

·         Diagnoses codes (ICD-9-CM, ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS).

·         Converter of ICD9 to ICD10.

·         Medicare fee schedules including OPPS rates in radiology.

·         Coding techniques like:

o   Corrective Coding Initiative (CCI)

o   Medical Necessity - procedures matching diagnoses.

o   Medicare’s LCD and NCD.

o   Surgical modifiers outlining coding guidelines.

o   Global period for surgical services.
