At Stars Pro, we an expert physical therapy medical billing and credentialing team, our physical therapy medical billing process is consisting on these steps.
During the initial patient visit, demographic and insurance information is collected. This is followed by verification of the patient’s insurance coverage and benefits for best physical therapy services.
The physical therapist performs a thorough evaluation and documents their findings. Based on the diagnosis and treatment plan, a medical coder assigns specific codes using Current Procedural Terminology (CPT®) codes for the evaluation and any procedures performed.
The coded information from the evaluation and treatment, along with patient demographics and insurance details, is compiled into a clean claim. This claim is then submitted electronically to the patient’s insurance provider for processing.
Once the insurance company processes the claim, they will either pay the full amount, a portion, or deny the claim entirely. An Explanation of Benefits (EOB) is typically sent to both the patient and the physical therapy practice, outlining the details of the claim adjudication.
If the claim is partially or fully denied, the billing team may investigate the reason and potentially appeal the decision. For approved claims, any co-pays or remaining patient responsibility after insurance payment will be collected from the patient.
Denied claims require attention to understand the reason for rejection. The billing team might need to gather additional documentation or correct any errors to resubmit the claim for proper reimbursement. This follow-up process ensures the physical therapy practice receives maximum payment for services rendered.
