Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

The oncology billing process is more complex due to the disease treatment options and multi-disciplinary interventions requiring handling infusion codes, high-cost drugs, treatment cycles, and strict documentation for medical necessity for oncology procedures.

Our practice to manage chemotherapy and immunotherapy billing includes using accurate J-codes for validation of high-cost medications, e.g., infusion duration, and submitting claims to different payers on their specified format and time for receiving reimbursement on time. Finally, we send patient statements for transparent communication between the provider and patients.

All oncology procedures and interventions are subject to prior authorization from their specific health insurers, like Medicaid, Medicare, and all other commercial payers. Our oncology medical billing services help you obtain advanced authorization for chemotherapy, immunotherapy, biologics, tumor surgical removal, radiation therapy, etc. By taking prior authorization, we help you reduce claim denials and provide treatment without fear of not getting paid.

Common oncology coding errors include missing phone number of the patient, typos in the patient’s first or last name or both, incorrect J-code, infusion start times, missing modifier, lack of medical necessity, use of invalid code for high-cost oncology drugs, etc. These errors contribute to higher-than-normal claim denials.

Our best practices include free billing audits for optimized management services. Our oncology billing professionals review your billing process and identify gaps leading to revenue leakages and offer tailored solutions, addressing your challenges appropriately and, finally, proposing concrete solutions leading to revenue maximization.
