Prostheses Care is Complex For Several Reasons
The complexities of medical billing don’t stop at services. Prostheses, orthotics, and durable medical equipment (DME) all have to be coded and submitted in a claim before insurers or government payers will cover any of the costs. Every payer has different prostheses billing guidelines & rules about what is covered and under what circumstances, making it very difficult for medical office staff to keep up with all the details.
Outsourcing Medical Billing And Coding
Outsourcing medical billing and coding to a professional revenue cycle management (RCM) company like METACARE MSO has proven to be a stress-free solution that increases our clients’ income. Our billers are certified and experienced in dealing with prostheses, and all our staff are also trained in HIPPA compliance, so you don’t have to worry about patient data being secure.
Fitting And Adjustment Appointments
The coding for fitting and adjusting prostheses includes the office visit, so billers must be aware that they may not also use the code for a visit in the claim.
Overlapping Codes
There is some overlap between the codes for providing and adjusting prostheses and time spent by a skilled clinician training the user. Anyone billing for prosthetics must know how to properly identify and code for each instance and know how to use modifiers to indicate reduced services so that there is no duplicate payment. Failure to do so can result in over-coding, and ultimately in fraud charges against the physician.
Uncoded Products
Not all prosthetic devices have been submitted for product review, so they do not have their own codes. Medical coders and billers must know how to find the correct codes to use in these cases. Tracking down information can be time consuming, leading labor costs to exceed the value of the claim.
METACARE Maximizes Reimbursement and Protects Your Revenue Stream

Our innovative approach to medical billing includes our own proprietary software that ensures all the latest codes are in the system and our billers know what to look for and how to avoid rejected and denied claims.
Correct Coding Resubmission
When claims are rejected or denied, our billers swiftly determine what went wrong and get the complete information and correct coding resubmitted. This can take hours of office staff time when it is handled by less experienced coders and billers, resulting in even more lost revenue due to labor costs. Outsourcing to a professional prostheses medical billing company gets you the maximum reimbursement and least unpaid claims.
