Overview
Comprehensive OB/GYN Revenue Management for Greater Profitability
OB/GYN practices face billing and coding complexities due to services like family planning, anesthesia, and abortion tests. Our AAPC-certified coders ensure compliance with CMS, AMA, and insurance requirements, resulting in faster reimbursement cycles and accurate claims submissions
Reducing Claim Cycles and Unpaid Balances
Depending on your clinic’s insurance mix, our dedicated OB/GYN billers optimize claim cycles to 21–25 days and immediately follow up on unpaid claims older than 18 days. We handle both print and electronic submissions, ensuring that no claim falls through the cracks. Our vigilant approach to pre‐authorization and denial management accelerates cash flow and keeps your practice financially healthy
Mastering CPT and ICD‐10 Coding Nuances
From CPT codes used in deliveries, surgeries, and anesthesia management to ICD‐10 diagnostic specificity for gynecologic conditions, accurate coding is the bedrock of timely reimbursements. Our team’s in‐depth knowledge of HCPCS rules, as well as advanced E&M coding strategies, ensures every service—from mother‐fetal medicine to reproductive endocrinology—is billed correctly the first time
