Your Team of Experts Handling Billing, Collection, and Revenue Management.
Remote Expert Solutions boasts a robust team of seasoned billers, comprising a specialized group well-versed in the complexities of billing for services and equipment essential in catering to individuals with disabilities.
Medical Billing for Disability Services
Medical care and equipment supplied to individuals with disabilities often entail distinct coding compared to those used for patients receiving short-term treatment for similar conditions. Consequently, medical coders and billers must remain vigilant regarding the specifics of the procedures performed and the circumstances under which they were administered.
It Can Be Difficult for Inexperienced Coders
For inexperienced coders, particularly in bustling medical office settings, capturing all the intricacies can prove challenging. This underscores the importance of outsourcing medical billing and coding to specialists solely dedicated to this facet of the business. Entrusting revenue cycle management (RCM) to external experts empowers physicians and medical staff to concentrate on patient care, safe in the knowledge that highly-trained specialists are adeptly managing claims.
Billing and Coding Concerns for Disability Services
Below are some of the distinctive aspects that characterize disability medical billing. Accurate reimbursement for services and equipment hinges on the correct application of corresponding codes.
Specialized Equipment Limitations
Insurers and payers maintain diverse policies regarding durable medical equipment (DME) and other essential medical apparatus. Consequently, coders and medical billers must possess adeptness in verifying the payer’s specifications and precise coverage criteria.
Treatment Of Pre-existing Conditions
Insurers are now prohibited from denying coverage to patients with pre-existing conditions or imposing higher rates on them. This necessitates that medical billing specialists understand the distinct coding requirements for initial and subsequent visits and possess the expertise to navigate denials related to the treatment of chronic conditions.
Extensive Medicare and Medicaid Coverage
The landscape of services for individuals with disabilities undergoes continuous enhancement, necessitating corresponding updates in coding protocols to accommodate new advancements. Alongside hospital and medical interventions, provisions encompass rehabilitative, residential, and long-term care. Distinct guidelines apply in certain instances compared to those for the elderly under Medicaid coverage, underscoring the importance for coders and billers to meticulously discern the appropriate designations.
Patient Care Should Be the Top Priority

Collaborating with a seasoned medical billing company has proven highly advantageous for numerous practices and large-scale providers.
