Strategic Denial Prevention & Management

Expert Application of Combination Codes
Cardiology billing requires precision, especially with ICD-10's extensive combination codes for cardiac conditions.

Precise Diagnosis-Based Documentation
We code for the specific cardiac diagnoses and procedures your physicians perform, not just presenting symptoms. This approach ensures comprehensive treatment documentation, supports medical necessity, and withstands payer scrutiny. Our detailed coding methodology protects your practice during audits while capturing the full complexity of cardiovascular care.
We verify every patient's insurance eligibility and benefits before scheduled cardiac procedures. This upfront verification reduces claim rejections, prevents surprise billing issues, and provides accurate patient responsibility estimates.

Our Cardiology Medical Billing Best Practices
We recognize the critical importance of cardiac procedure preauthorization and accurate coding to prevent authorization denials and ensure maximum reimbursement. Here are the core practices that set our cardiology billing apart:
Our coding specialists are thoroughly trained in the latest CMS codes and appropriate modifiers for cardiology billing. We ensure strict adherence to Medicare guidelines, NCCI edits, and cardiovascular-specific coding rules that directly impact reimbursement.
Continuous Compliance Training
Regular, ongoing training for both our coders and your clinical staff is essential to staying current with evolving coding guidelines, payer policy changes, and new CPT updates. We maintain active AAPC certifications and participate in quarterly cardiovascular coding education to ensure accurate, compliant billing practices year-round.
Expert Utilization of Combination Codes
ICD-10 features numerous combination codes specifically designed for cardiology conditions codes that capture both the underlying disease and manifestations in a single code. Our coders receive specialized training to accurately identify and apply these combination codes, maximizing specificity while reducing the number of codes needed per claim.
Code for Diagnosis, Not Symptoms
We code for the specific diagnoses and procedures performed based on clinical documentation, rather than coding symptoms alone. This approach ensures accurate billing, supports medical necessity, provides proper treatment documentation, and prevents denials related to unspecified or symptom-only coding.
Proactive Pre-Service Authorization Management
For high-cost cardiovascular procedures TAVR, Watchman, complex ablations, structural heart interventions we verify prior authorization requirements before the procedure is scheduled. Our team submits complete authorization requests with all required clinical documentation, tracks approval status, and follows up systematically to prevent procedure delays and post-service denials.
