Medical Coding Compliance for Your New Private Medical Practice

The ebix Billing Services team has a strong reputation as an expert in medical coding service. By and large, medical billing begins with accurate and complete documentation in the medical record.  Hence, coding is the way your intellectual services and labor translate into a code used to bill insurance and document the value of your service.

Perhaps most noteworthy are the ICD-10 codes. The ICD-10 is currently the cornerstone of classifying diseases, injuries, health encounters, and inpatient procedures in morbidity settings. Because of this, the ebix, Inc. team has honed medical coding skills and business processes to meet the needs of independent physicians.

Therefore, the transforming of a provider’s narrative or description of the disease, injury, and procedures into universal medical code numbers for the insurance claim is the fundamental purpose of medical coding. For this reason, our team of professional certified medical coders ensures higher reimbursement by properly aligning services with a medical diagnosis. Consequently, this doesn’t just assure proper payment. It will also minimize denials resulting from the incorrect association of diagnosis and procedure codes.

Data Analytics for Your New Private Medical Practice

Our financial reporting gives you the insight you need to address the root causes of charge issues, resolve process inefficiencies, improve coding compliance, and ensure the integrity of all claims. Office Managers and Administrators can quickly review performance and trends, drill down into the data to analyze root cause by reason, evaluate payer performance, and the financial impact of claim denials.

Examples of some of the financial reports we provide (above and beyond the regular month-end reporting that give details around charges, collections, and your AR) include:

  • Charge & Revenue Analysis – evaluate financial ratios versus MGMA benchmarks
  • Coding analysis – identify potential under, over and incorrect coding scenarios
  • Procedure Analysis – analyze top CPT codes for cost-benefit analysis
  • Payer Reimbursement Analysis – assess which payers consistently slow up payments through unnecessary denials and “lost” claims
  • Provider & Staff Productivity Analysis – evaluate provider and staff productivity based on the specific place of service, revenue and RVU’s
  • AR Aging Analysis – velocity of payments per payor and CPT respectively

Your New Private Medical Practice will Minimize Medical Claim Denials

Based on our experience working with physicians and healthcare organizations, we understand that the revenue cycle success starts at the patient registration and continues throughout the claims cycle. Accuracy of patient demographics and financial information upfront results in reduced denials, fewer rejected claims, and fewer returned statements. Claim cleanliness is the critical component that stops the denial from origination, and the following parameters impact it:

  • Patient registration data quality
  • Prior-authorizations
  • Non-covered services and medical necessity management
  • Eligibility and benefits coverage
  • Clinical documentation quality
  • Coding
  • Claim editing
  • Payor rules & mandates
