Hospitalist Billing Services

Why Should MPD Be A Trending Choice As An Outsourcing Partner?

Hospitalist billing and coding is a challenging task and one of the fastest-growing specialty in United States hospitals. Hospitalists are physician providers and are billed on the CMS-1500 form and paid at physician fee schedules. A hospitalist can practice in both post-acute care (PAC) and hospitals. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) authorized a new dedicated billing code for hospitalists, which is an essential step toward recognizing hospital medicine. Every day, medical practices lose money because they do not employ medical billing specialists, technology, procedures, and management that can compete with insurance companies.

Proper Hospitalist Coding Guidelines To Maximize Reimbursement

While all services cannot be charged for, hospitalists can and should document and categorize acceptable service levels to guarantee proper reimbursement. Here are some key points to remember:

  • CPT codes 99221-99223 should be used in the inpatient hospital setting to describe initial hospital care for the evaluation and management of the patient. Hospitalists must ensure that the initial hospital visit is thoroughly documented, including the history, physical examination, and medical decision-making. Failure to submit sufficient documentation will result in the first hospital care being down coded.
  • CPT codes 99231-99233 should capture all stages of following hospital care, including a review of the medical record, evaluation of diagnostic studies, and changes in the patient’s state since the last assessment.
  • Use the correct hospital discharge and hospital monitoring service codes. When physicians authorize patient observation services, the admitting physician might bill hospital observation codes to reflect E/M services.
  • It is essential to document critical-care time properly. Bedside time and time spent on the patient’s unit/floor where the physician’s services are immediately available to the patient are referred to as critical-care time. If the patient becomes critically ill when the provider records an E/M service, the physician must report both the E/M hospital visit and the relevant critical care code.
  • It is critical for the physician to properly document the diagnosis to assign the correct ICD-10 diagnostic codes.
