Gastroenterology is a medical specialty that focuses on the digestive system and related problems. This specialty focuses on illnesses of the gastrointestinal system, which includes the organs from the mouth to the stomach, as well as the organs along the alimentary canal. Gastroenterologists are doctors who specialize in this discipline.
Gastroenterologists must stay current on the numerous coding rules and payer-specific protocols in order to maintain a compliant and financially successful practice. Medical billing and coding in gastroenterology is difficult and necessitates a wide variety of expertise to secure optimal compensation.
Gastroenterology Billing By SWIFT Medical Solutions
Receiving payment for the services you provide necessitates meticulous attention to detail and constant communication with your whole staffing team, including all providers.
Additionally, invoicing for gastrointestinal and endoscopic services necessitates the capacity to properly track underpayments. Most billing software and in-house billing professionals are unable to meet this need. GI practices that do not successfully target underpayments are at risk of losing a lot of money.
We have a client base at Swift Medical Solutions that includes hospitals, physician offices (including GI practices), and medical billing organizations from all 50 states. We use our ten years of experience and knowledge working with gastroenterologists to help you fix and improve your revenue cycle. Our coders are qualified by the American Academy of Professional Coders and are familiar with CMS and AMA’s ICD-9/10, CPT, and HCPCS coding rules (AAPC).
