Frequently Asked Questions

01 Do you handle global period billing?
+

Yes, we track 90 days and 10 days in the global exactly, and then we separate the follow up billable care from the bundled post-op visits so that practices can use that to capture reimbursement for visits other than the bundled post-op visits.

02 How are staged procedures coded properly?
+

If planned follow-up surgeries are performed within a global period, we use the appropriate staged-procedure modifiers that tells the payer that these services are not duplicate and will be covered.

03 Can unrelated E/M visits be billed?
+

Yes, when a patient visits for a condition not related to surgery, and is then seen during a surgical global period for a different condition, we use the appropriate modifiers to ensure that the E & M portion of the visit is reimbursed separately from surgery.

04 Do you code return-to-OR complications?
+

Yes, we recognize complications that are seen that need an unplanned re-admission to surgery, which we note with the proper modifiers, allowing for a separate reimbursement of this additional procedure.

05 How do you bill co-surgeon procedures?
+

Applying two co-surgeon modifiers to the same procedure accurately with both providers submitting claims correctly split to reimburse fairly, avoiding duplicate billing denials.

06 Why are surgical claims frequently denied?
+

Common denials are due to missing operative reports, modifier sequencing or incomplete medical necessity documentation; we correct those denials and submit appeals to recover lost revenue.

07 Do you bill laparoscopic-to-open conversions?
+

Absolutely, if the procedure is converted from laparoscopic to open surgery during the procedure, we are sure to code the procedure correctly and provide appropriate documentation to ensure correct conversion reimbursement rather than downcoding the procedure incorrectly.

08 Can you manage bundled procedure claims?
+

Yes, we are applying the edits from the National Correct Coding Initiative (NCCI) correctly, and we are unbundling separately billable procedures performed concurrently so that the surgical practices are not underpaid as a result of incorrect assumptions by the payers about the bundling of procedures.

09 Do you handle emergency surgery documentation?
+

Yes, we make sure that trauma and emergency surgery claims adhere to the essentials of critical care time, urgency documentation and procedure justification, which facilitates appropriate time-sensitive, high complexity surgical claims reimbursement.

10 Why choose Billing Care Solutions for surgery?
+

We specialize in global period rules, in the precision of modifiers, in NCCI bundling logic and how to prevent denials, reduce underpayment and help general surgery practices maintain consistent reimbursement for each procedure type.
