What Makes Radiology Medical Billing Difficult?

• Radiologists need to be experts in diagnosing
  several ailments and monitoring the treatment,
  and predicting the outcome besides that, these
  experts play a crucial role in managing the IT
  applications for healthcare. It is pretty
  challenging to ensure appropriate reimbursement
  as public, and private payers mainly scrutinize
  the imaging services.
• There is always a chance of having compliance
  issues due to this, plus there might be lost
  charges or under-coded charges. Usually, the
  majority of errors are only found when claims are
  disputed, or audits are performed. Both medical
  billing and coding services play a crucial role
  in order to stay viable.

Some of the latest changes that are impacting
radiology services are as follows

• Coding Provisions and Revisions
• National Correct Coding Initiative (NCCI) and The
  Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)
  have made some revisions regarding coding and
  altered the coding policies. NCCI has made code
  corrections for radiotherapy planning procedures,
  while the CMS has brought alterations in coding
  practices for low-dose CT lung cancer screenings.
• The Boom in Data Analytics
• The experts from the industry tend to point to
  data analytics that are driving the medical
  facilities currently. Big data and workflow
  analytics help drive more value which ensures the
  process moves more efficiently and in a
  streamlined manner.

• Value-Based Payments
• A plethora of radiologists participate in the
  physician quality reporting system thanks to the
  falling reimbursements and ever-increasing
  business expenses. Every year, the incentives
  under PQRS tend to increase. If one wants to get
  a bonus under this system, then reporting
  successfully on three measures per physician is
  mandatory.
• Managing the Swift in IT systems
• It is known that radiology practices tend to
  change the IT systems that face several data
  migration complications. They have to work under
  the IT system vendor to get a realistic migration
  schedule and make contingency plans. Above all,
  one needs to ensure that cleanup is executed
  accurately.
