| Your Practice's Daily Struggle | The Billing Care Solutions Advantage |
|---|---|
| Confusion between Medicare and commercial time thresholds. Medicare requires 104 minutes before billing 99292; commercial payors require only 75 minutes. | Navigate dual time standards with precision. Track critical care minutes per payor. Medicare claims meet the 104-minute threshold; commercials follow 75-minute rules. No misbilled add-on codes. |
| Split-shared billing between physicians and APPs is now mandatory. The provider with over 50% of total time must bill. NPP reimbursement is only 85% of physician rates. | Master split-shared documentation. Track each provider's time. Bill under the practitioner who performed the substantive portion. Maximize revenue while staying fully compliant. |
| Critical care time is easily miscalculated. Bundled procedures like ventilator management and vascular access cannot be counted toward critical care time. | Exclude bundled services. Separate procedures from critical care minutes. Document time accurately. Prevent denials from improper time aggregation. |
| Same-day E/M and critical care billing triggers denials. Modifier -25 is required with proof the E/M was separate and distinct. | Manage same-day services correctly. Append modifier -25 when E/M precedes critical care. Ensure documentation proves distinct services. Avoid duplicate billing. |
| Concurrent care by different specialties is allowed. Same-specialty, same-group providers must aggregate time. Only one 99291 per patient per day. | Navigate concurrent care rules expertly. Different specialties bill separately. Same-specialty groups combine time. One 99291 per patient per day. Full compliance. |
| A/R days stuck at 60+. Denials pile up. Cash flow suffers while critical care practices struggle to maintain financial stability. | Relentlessly recover every dollar. Active appeals instead of write-offs. Slash A/R days from 60+ to under 30. Predictable cash flow. |

Frequently Asked Questions
Time-based CPT coding, complete medical necessity documentation, and proper coding sequence with other procedures are important elements of critical care billing and require specialized coding knowledge to ensure optimal reimbursement.
Critical care time is defined as time on the bedside or on the unit necessary to manage the critically ill patient without separately billable procedures. Documentation of start/stop times is crucial for the correct coding of CPT 99291/99292.
Outsourcing helps minimize coding mistakes, guarantees adherence to payer rules and regulations and speeds up complexity in claims coding. Billing Care Solutions provides practices with denials reduction, revenue protection and audit readiness every time.
CPT codes 99291 and 99292 are the most commonly used codes for critical care services, with 99291 being used for the initial 30-74 minutes of critical care and 99292 for any additional 30 minutes of critical care services. These codes will require a specific time note to be completed for accurate billing.
We avoid denials by accurately documenting time, sequencing codes properly, reviewing medical necessity and scrubbing claims before they're submitted, making sure to meet the critical care billing requirements of payers.
Yes, but time spent performing separately billable procedures (CPR, intubation, etc.) is not counted towards critical care time. Sequencing ensures non-overlapping charges and audit/denial risk reduction.uidelines of each payer.
Ensuring proper medical necessity by recording critical care time, clinical interventions, and medical decision-making will minimize denial risk on high dollar critical care claims, as well as assist in selecting appropriate CPT codes.
There are potential compliance risks such as mis-calculating time, up-coding, inadequate documentation, and improper bundling of procedures. These are issues that we can find through our audits before they occur and avoid coding issues and exposure to payer audits.
For multi-provider management of the same critically ill patient, we make sure that the time is attributed properly, shared billing documentation is accurate, and in sequence to prevent duplicate billing and claim denials.
With certified coders trained in critical care guidelines, payer-specific expertise and comprehensive compliance audits, Billing Care Solutions helps critical care practices to cut denials and safeguard revenue.
