Orthopedic Medical Billing Services For Practices in Dallas-Fort Worth, TX
Key Challenges in Orthopedic Billing
Orthopedic billing is complicated by a range of factors including:
Coding Errors
Mistakes in coding can result in claim denials and delayed payments.
Insurance Coverage Discrepancies
Ensuring that services are covered by the patient’s insurance can be complex.
Compliance Violations
Staying compliant with constantly changing regulations is critical to avoid financial penalties.
Pre-authorization
Many orthopaedic procedures require pre-authorization from insurance companies. This process can be time-consuming and prone to delays or denials if not handled correctly.
Bundling Issues
Some procedures may be subject to bundling, where multiple services are packaged together under a single payment, which can complicate billing.
Insurance Policies
Different insurers have varying policies and reimbursement rates for orthopaedic services. Keeping up with these changes is challenging but necessary for proper billing.
Patient demographics
Verifying patient eligibility and understanding their insurance benefits can be difficult, especially with changes in coverage or high-deductible plans.
Insurance Coverage Discrepancies
Ensuring that services are covered by the patient’s insurance can be complex.
Claims Denials and Appeals

Key Components of Orthopedic Billing
- Pre-authorization: Securing required approvals from insurance companies for certain procedures or treatments prior to delivering services.
- Fee Schedule: Following payer-specific fee schedules, such as those from workers’ compensation or insurance companies, to ensure accurate reimbursement.
- International Classification of Disease (ICD-10) Codes: We precisely document diagnoses using ICD-10 codes to justify the medical necessity of procedures.
- Common Procedure Terminology (CPT) Codes: We skillfully manage all applicable CPT codes, including 29877 for knee arthroscopy and 27130 for total hip arthroplasty.
- Modifiers: Our billing experts use the appropriate modifiers, like -59 for distinct procedural services or -LT/-RT for side-specific procedures, to ensure accurate billing.
