Overview of Pulmonology Billing Outsourcing

Over 35 million Americans suffer from chronic respiratory conditions like asthma, COPD, and pulmonary fibrosis. According to the CDC, chronic lower respiratory diseases are the sixth leading cause of death in the United States. The growing demand for respiratory care puts immense pressure on pulmonologists, who often lack the time and resources to manage complicated billing workflows.

Pulmonology billing requires precise coding, strict documentation, and an understanding of payer-specific rules for services like pulmonary function tests (PFTs), oxygen therapy, and pulmonary rehab. Outsourcing this function to a specialized billing provider like CLICKVISION BPO allows you to improve reimbursement, reduce denials, and refocus on patient outcomes instead of paperwork.

Comprehensive Pulmonology Billing Solutions

We provide end-to-end revenue cycle management built for pulmonologists, respiratory therapists, and sleep study centers:

Insurance Verification & Pre-Authorizations

We verify eligibility and secure pre-authorizations for tests and procedures such as pulmonary function tests (PFTs), bronchoscopy, CPAP therapy, and oxygen equipment. This reduces claim denials due to lack of coverage.

Respiratory Coding Accuracy

Our AAPC-certified coders specialize in pulmonology CPT and ICD-10 codes, including 94010 (Spirometry), 31622 (Bronchoscopy), 95810 (Sleep studies), G0424 (Pulmonary rehab services). We apply modifiers accurately and ensure bundled services are billed appropriately.

Chronic Care Management Billing

Ongoing conditions like COPD, asthma, and pulmonary fibrosis require continuous monitoring and treatment. We ensure proper documentation and claim sequencing for long-term care billing.

Denial Management & AR Recovery

We proactively manage denied claims, correcting coding issues, resubmitting with additional documentation, and following up with payers to maximize revenue recovery.

Compliance & Documentation Support

We help you stay compliant with CMS, HIPAA, and Medicare Part B guidelines. Our team ensures all claims include physician notes, test results, referrals, and pre-authorization records.
