Cardiology billing and coding is characterized by many procedural guidelines, substantial contractual modifications, and frequently evolving codes. Assigning CPT codes can be challenging, particularly when variables are involved. Staying on top of new codes, code updates, and removed codes also takes significant work.
Since the implementation of ICD-10, the need for documentation, responsibility, billing, coding, and monitoring in cardiology has increased more than ever.
There are unique problems with billing in cardiology. The issues include human error, inadequate knowledge of current medical coding and documentation requirements, functioning and graphing across multiple care settings and avoiding precise cardiac coding. Medical billers and coders must acquaint themselves with cardiology billing and coding guidelines due to the constant changes, numerous issues, and lengthy processes.
