DME Medical Billing Services

We are Expert in DME Medicla Billing Services

DME billing differs from other types of medical billing and is a complex process. It requires a knowledgeable and professional DME billing expert with in-depth knowledge of HCPCS codes. Despite this expertise, challenges in DME billing persist, particularly in medical coding & billing. Since durable medical equipment is often expensive, patients frequently prefer renting over purchasing. This makes it essential for the billing team to understand when and how to use specific codes for accurate and seamless reimbursement.

To navigate these complexities, trained, experienced & professional DME billers and coders are essential. DME billing extends beyond orthotic equipment to include items such as wheelchairs, hospital beds, blankets, crutches, braces, walkers, ventilators, oxygen monitors, and more.

The major challenge in DME billing is reducing the number and volume of claim denials. This can be achieved by gathering all necessary documents & correctly using accurate codes and information. Incomplete payer details or missing documents significantly increase the risk of denials. Submitting complete claims reduces A/R efforts, saving time, resources & money.

Achieving perfect coordination between the front-end and back-end processes is crucial for successful DME billing. As a dedicated DME billing company, we manage all aspects of your billing processes to minimize denials. Our experienced staff ensures improved cash flow for our clients by streamlining operations & maximizing reimbursements.

What is DME Medical Billing

Durable Medical Equipment (DME) refers to reusable medical devices that help patients manage health conditions, recover at home, or improve their quality of life. These items, such as wheelchairs, walkers, oxygen equipment, and hospital beds, are prescribed by healthcare providers and are designed for long-term use. DME is often covered by insurance, like Medicare or Medicaid, when deemed medically necessary.

What is Durable Medical Equipment Coding?

Medical coding involves assigning a specific code to each piece of durable medical equipment to represent it within the billing system. This system, known as DMECS (Durable Medical Equipment Coding System), simplifies the identification of equipment for distributors and suppliers. Designed to streamline the DME billing process, it helps professionals track and manage equipment efficiently, acting as a reference directory for those involved in billing.

However, DMECS is not a substitute for HCPCS codes, which are essential for accurate billing and reimbursement. Additionally, modifiers are often applied in the billing process to provide further specificity and ensure proper claim submission.

Our process in DME medical Billing

We take pride in being a prestigious DME billing company. With years of experience and extensive expertise in DME billing, we continuously strive to refine our processes, making them efficient, seamless, and client-focused. Below is a brief overview of how we conduct our operations:

Documentation

Documentation is the first and most critical step in the DME billing process. While many billing companies outsource this task, doing so increases the risk of denials due to missing documents. At our DME billing company, we handle documentation in-house to minimize errors and ensure accuracy. From the outset, we thoroughly screen requirements and begin gathering the necessary documents. We maintain a detailed checklist to avoid mistakes and ensure all information is accurate and properly organized. Once the required documentation is complete and verified, we proceed with processing the medical claim.

Eligibility and Authorization Verification

We use AQVerify, our in-house eligibility verification software, to streamline the process. AQVerify is reliable, fast, and helps us save valuable time. It ensures that the applicant meets all the minimum criteria set by the payer. Since authorization is a crucial step, we complete this process before moving forward with the operational steps. Unlike many other billing companies, we handle eligibility verification and authorization in-house, giving us a unique advantage.
