Why Nephrology Coding & Billing Can Cause Obstructions In Your Cashflow

The range of diagnostic and therapeutic interventions, each requiring precise documentation and coding for accurate reimbursement, leaves lots of opportunities for errors to occur that impact the organization’s cashflow.

For instance, renal biopsies require meticulous documentation of the procedure details. Common errors include incomplete documentation of biopsy findings, missing information about the approach used, or failing to report associated services accurately.

Billing for dialysis treatments often involves specifying the type and duration of the procedure. Errors in coding, such as misclassifying the type of dialysis or inaccurately documenting the duration, can lead to claim denials and delayed reimbursements.

Also, billing discrepancies often arise when nephrologists provide services in various settings, such as outpatient clinics, hospitals, and dialysis centers. Inconsistent coding practices across these settings can result in confusion, claim denials, and revenue loss.

The Code-Stones Causing Blockages in Your Nephrology Cashflow

Proficiency in coding is indispensable for optimizing reimbursements in nephrology. Unraveling the intricacies of Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) and International Classification of Diseases (ICD) codes unveils potential pitfalls that, if overlooked, can significantly impact your financial workflow.

Common CPT Codes

50200 (Renal biopsy; percutaneous, needle)

Precision is key! Inadequate documentation on the medical necessity of percutaneous renal biopsy can open the door to claim denials.

90935 (Hemodialysis procedure with single physician evaluation)

Missed details during hemodialysis documentation, especially in single physician evaluations, may result in overlooked findings and complications, leading to claim rejections.

50300 (Exploration, retroperitoneal, with or without biopsy(s)

Failure to explicitly state the necessity of retroperitoneal exploration and document findings increases the risk of claim denials for this procedure.

90960 (End-stage renal disease (ESRD) related services monthly, for patients 20 years of age and older; individual, face-to-face)

Incomplete documentation of individual ESRD services and modifications in treatment plans during face-to-face encounters may lead to claim denials.

Common ICD 10 Codes

N18.9 (Chronic kidney disease, unspecified)

Inadequate detailing of the severity and impact of chronic kidney disease can result in coding ambiguity and subsequent claim denials.

I12.9 (Hypertensive heart and chronic kidney disease without heart failure, unspecified)

Neglecting to clearly describe the relationship between hypertension, heart, and kidney disease, especially the absence of heart failure, increases the risk of claim denials.

N28.9 (Disorder of kidney and ureter, unspecified)

Lack of detailed documentation on symptoms, diagnostic tests, and relevant information raises the likelihood of claim denials for an unspecified disorder of the kidney and ureter.

N17.9 (Acute kidney failure, unspecified)

Failing to provide specific details on the onset, contributing factors, and interventions for acute kidney failure may result in claim denials due to insufficient information.

We transitioned to Neolytix a while back, having come from a billing company we were less than thrilled about. The people here have been very responsive to our needs and requests, and adapt quickly to whatever curve balls our practice throws them. They bring a wealth of knowledge to the table, and take the attitude that our success is their success.

I was a new office manager for a private practice when I hired Neolytix for credentialing assistance. Eden has been very thorough and helpful every step of the way. insurance credentialing can be so overwhelming at times, that having this task off my plate has given me a peace of mind. I know she is handling everything. Always quick to respond to questions or concerns.
