Procedural, or CPT, coding for dermatology procedures and services can confuse even the most experienced medical coders. Whether the lesion was benign or malignant, or one tag was removed or many, everything must be determined for accurate code selection.
Dermatology procedures’ coverages vary from payer to payer. E.g., while UnitedHealthcare covers laser surgery, Medicare may categorize it as a cosmetic procedure and deny its reimbursement. So, it is hard for dermatologists to keep up with varying coverages.
And if you thought that different coverage rules were the only thing that you would have to tackle when it came to insurance payers, you were wrong! Payers often revise their billing policies and coding guidelines, adding more confusion to dermatology billing.
Dermatologists must obtain prior authorizations from insurance payers before performing certain procedures like cryotherapy and skin grafting. Without a pre-authorization, claims are denied. However, it can take weeks for the payer to pre-approve the service.
Sometimes, even dermatologists fail to clarify whether the service was medically necessary or for cosmetic reasons. Cosmetic services are not covered by payers, and for medically necessary services, detailed documentation and justification are required.
Bundling two procedures into one for simplified dermatology billing or unbundling global procedures for separate/higher reimbursements can also trigger denials. Often, billers don’t even realize over- or under-coding mistakes due to varying billing rules.
In medical billing for dermatology, accurate coding is the ‘hypodermis’ of excellence. Slight variations in code descriptors warrant the selection of a completely different code. While coding errors remain the primary reason for claim denials, we fix this with our dermatology billing services. Our AAPC-certified coders have mastered CPT code selection for dermatology procedures to ensure rightful reimbursement collection.
