Invicta MD lets wound care specialists focus on patient care without the stress of medical billing.
One key factor is that treatment may occur in different types of facilities for a single patient, even when treating the same wound. For example, a hospital patient may be discharged and continue wound care at an outpatient center. Each encounter must be billed accurately, ensuring the code details specify which location was used for the treatment.
In today’s economy, with rising costs and tightening budgets, having a streamlined medical billing process is crucial for ensuring that every claim is reimbursed correctly. Practices without specialized billing management often leave money on the table, causing significant revenue loss. Let Invicta MD handle the complexities of coding and billing so you can focus on what truly matters—your patients.
Most wound care patients arrive on referral, and while the referring physician’s office may have checked if insurance covers your services, it’s crucial not to assume it’s accurate. Every time a new patient schedules an appointment, your wound care centre must verify their insurance coverage to avoid surprises and ensure timely, accurate reimbursement.
Wound care supplies, costly items like cellular and tissue-based products for skin wounds, are becoming a financial strain for practices. At the same time, reimbursements are shrinking. This creates a crucial need for precise coding and billing to ensure no revenue is lost to claim denials or rejections. Proper handling of billing ensures you’re getting the compensation you deserve, even as costs rise and reimbursements drop.
Many insurers require prior authorization for treatment, and claims can be rejected if they aren’t properly authorized, even if the services would have otherwise been covered. It’s essential to verify authorization when confirming that the exam or visit is covered by the patient’s insurance. Since wound care often involves ongoing treatment over time, it’s crucial for staff to stay proactive and vigilant about securing the necessary authorizations, ensuring there are no interruptions in the care process due to authorization issues.
