  • Every cardiology practice faces billing and
    coding challenges. Rapidly evolving technologies
    and increasingly complex treatment protocols
    including endovascular surgery,
    electrophysiology, diagnostic tests and E M
    services make cardiology coding, billing and
    reimbursement extremely challenging for your
    practice. Cardiology coding is complex and
    requires experienced, trained and certified
    coders to accurately code the interventional
    procedures such as cardiac catheterization,
    angioplasty, percutaneous coronary intervention,
    stents, atherectomy etc.
  • Medisys Data Solutions brings over 15 years of
    cardiology coding and billing experience to your
    practice. Your cardiology practice needs the
    skills and experience to handle complex
    interventional procedures. We at Medisys Data
    Solutions are recognized in Cardiology coding and
    billing.
  • Below Are A Few Steps From Cardiology Billing
    Professionals
  • Reduce human error Double checking the codes is
    very important as the cardiology codes are
    complex. Frequently used codes can be memorized
    and used by coders to avoid human error.

  • Monitoring updates on cardiology coding Keeping
    abreast with the coding updates by maintaining
    ICD 10 CM, PCS, HCPCS, CPT code books is
    imperative. CMS website publishes frequent
    updates to the coding rules and guidelines. The
    AHA (American Heart Association) publishes
    frequent newsletters. Frequent reference to CMS
    websites and subscriptions to articles will keep
    the providers updated on cardiology coding.
    Coding to the highest degree of specificity
    should be followed by all cardiologists.
  • Accurate Documentation Incorrect or inaccurate
    documentation delays the reimbursement cycle of
    claims. Documentation gaps in cardiology
    interventional procedures may lead to revenue
    losses for healthcare providers.
  • Quality checks and audits Regular quality checks
    and frequent audits of coding is a must to avoid
    repetition of errors. There needs to be open
    communication between physicians, coders,
    billers. Cardiologists need to be educated by
    coders and billers frequently used ICD and CPT
    codes by the practice and denials/rejections.
