Insurance Eligibility Verification

Patient coverage, benefits, deductibles, surgical benefits, and authorization requirements are verified before treatment begins. Early verification helps practices avoid reimbursement delays and patient billing complications.

Orthopedic Claims Submission

Claims are prepared and submitted promptly with attention to orthopedic-specific coding requirements. Accurate submission helps improve first-pass claim acceptance rates.

Orthopedic Medical Coding

Accurate CPT, HCPCS, and ICD-10 coding is critical in orthopedic billing. Our coding specialists review documentation to support proper reimbursement for procedures, surgeries, injections, and evaluations.

Revenue Cycle Reporting

Detailed financial reporting provides visibility into reimbursement trends, collections performance, denial activity, and payer behavior, helping practices make informed business decisions.

Orthopedic Claims Management

Every claim is reviewed for accuracy before submission. Ongoing claim monitoring helps identify issues early and supports a more efficient reimbursement process.

Payment Posting & Reconciliation

Insurance payments are posted accurately and reconciled against payer responses. Underpayments, variances, and reimbursement inconsistencies are identified for review.

Prior Authorization Coordination

Many orthopedic services require authorization before treatment. Our team manages authorization workflows to help reduce scheduling disruptions and reimbursement obstacles.

Faster Resolution for Rejected Claims

Rejected and underpaid claims can lead to ongoing revenue leakage. Our AR specialists review claim discrepancies carefully, correct billing errors, and resubmit clean claims to improve first-pass payment acceptance.

Orthopedic Billing and Coding Challenges Across New York Practices

Orthopedic billing sits at the intersection of surgical coding, global period rules, and durable medical equipment (DME) billing three areas that each carry their own error-prone details.

The most common issues we see:

  • Global period and modifier errors post-surgical visits deniel because a modifier (like 24 or 79) wasn’t applied to indicate the visit was unrelated to, or a staged part of, the original procedure.
  • Fracture care bundling global fracture care codes billed alongside separate E/M visits without proper documentation to support unbundling.
  • DME and orthotics billing braces, casts, and orthotic devices billed under the wrong HCPCS code or without required documentation, a frequent source of denials.
  • Surgical prior authorization delays many New York payers require prior authorization for elective orthopedic surgery, and a missed step can delay a patient’s procedure by weeks.
  • Multiple-procedure and bilateral billing claims involving multiple procedures in one session or bilateral procedures often get underpaid without correct multiple-procedure and bilateral modifiers.

Because orthopedic care spans office visits, surgery, and equipment billing, a practice needs a billing process that can handle all three without treating them as separate systems.

Why Orthopedic Practices in New York Outsource Their Billing

Practices that move orthopedic billing to a specialty team typically see improvement in three areas:

  • Fewer global-period and modifier denials because claims are
    reviewed against orthopedic-specific global period rules before
    submission.
  • Faster surgical scheduling with dedicated staff managing prior
    authorization for elective procedures, surgeries aren’t delayed
    waiting on paperwork.
  • Cleaner DME billing orthotics and durable medical equipment
    claims are coded and documented correctly the first time, instead of
    being denied and resubmitted.

For a specialty where surgical and equipment billing carry high dollar values, reducing denials on those claims specifically has an outsized effect on monthly collections.
