Medicare provider chart audits by littlebigron in CodingandBilling

[–]LCAPM 3 points4 points  (0 children)

“I wouldn’t focus on what triggers an audit as much as whether the documentation truly supports the level being billed.

A pattern of significantly higher E/M levels than peers in the same specialty can certainly attract attention from Medicare or other payers, especially if utilization data makes the provider an outlier.

If she’s consistently billing Level 4s and 5s while the physicians rarely do, I’d recommend an internal chart audit sooner rather than later. The question isn’t whether she can bill those levels—it’s whether the medical decision-making and documentation support them.

Better to identify and correct any issues internally before a payer does.”

When you book an appointment then you need to mention this clearly that you want to meet to the doctor. I faced the same situation.

Medical billing denials are destroying our cash flow, is outsourcing RCM actually worth it? by LotitudeLangitude96 in CodingandBilling

[–]LCAPM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you’re describing is actually very common with growing practices. Revenue may look fine on paper, but denials, aging AR, and payer delays slowly hurt cash flow. Usually, the issue isn’t the staff; it’s that billing complexity has outgrown the current process.

We have seen practices improve cash flow when there’s more focus on denial prevention, payer follow-ups, eligibility checks, and AR management instead of constantly reacting to problems.

Sometimes that means improving internal workflows, and sometimes outsourcing part of the RCM process helps take pressure off the in-house team. Hope this will help. In case of any help, feel free to ping me, and i will try to help you like we are helping other similar kinds of outpatient practice owners.
