PATHOLOGY BILLING SERVICES
Comprehensive Revenue Optimization Services Tailored to Your Needs
For an Efficient Pathology Billing Process, MedExpress’s seasoned billing experts offer hands-on experience in claims recovery. Our comprehensive, user-friendly billing services drive financial performance and foster growth.
Essential Expertise Required for Effective Pathology Billing
Unique billing demands pose challenges for pathology practices, groups, and labs. To effectively process and recover claims, billing and coding professionals must possess thorough expertise in pathology sub-specialties, along with up-to-date familiarity with billing guidelines and CPT code updates for pathology services. As scrutiny intensifies and regulations on laboratory billing practices tighten, clinical pathology labs must adopt rigorous compliance measures in line with evolving laws.
Performance-Driven Payment System Rewards
Traversing the intricate terrain of federal and commercial guidelines is formidable, yet the Merit-Based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) poses an even greater challenge. Dictating Medicare payments based on scores in four performance categories—Quality, Cost, Improvement Activities (IA), and Promoting Interoperability (PI)—MIPS demands meticulous attention. To evade payment cuts in 2020 and secure the maximum incentive, pathology labs must adeptly report on six Quality measures and up to two IA measures.

Effectively Handling Documentation and Reporting Challenges
Securing the future revenue cycle management of your lab hinges on precise documentation and accurate reporting. Adapting both front-office and back-office procedures is crucial for optimizing reimbursement from various payers. With many insurance networks narrowing and pathology labs often considered out-of-network, the challenges intensify. Furthermore, health insurers impose stricter benefit limitations. While coverage might be beyond your control, proactive eligibility verification before services can help prevent denied claims and collection issues.
Streamlined Claim Success for Enhanced Reimbursement
In the midst of numerous challenges, the timely processing and reporting of samples are crucial for successful medical claims and achieving higher reimbursement rates. The intricate regulations and reporting demands often lead to delays and missed payments. For pathology labs, navigating these hurdles can significantly impact business outcomes. However, with support from a committed team of laboratory billing professionals and analysts, regaining control becomes possible.
