Optimize Your ASC Billing for a
Superlative Outcome
Unlock the Full Potential of Your ASC with End-to-End Billing
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) defines Ambulatory Surgical Centers (ASCs) as facilities that provide same-day surgical care, including diagnostic and preventive procedures. As outpatient surgery centers, ASCs offer a range of surgical procedures that do not require hospitalization or an overnight stay, such as cataract surgery, colonoscopies, and minor orthopedic procedures. Although ASC services are getting more popular due to lower cost involved, billing for ASCs are getting more complicated.
For ASC medical billing, it is important to make sure that the procedure is listed as an approved one and the corresponding CPT code is used. To avoid rejections or denials, it is essential to have proper documentation to support medical necessity and proof of the procedure. Our expert billers and coders have adequate knowledge and expertise to handle the intricacies of ASC billing. They are also trained in optimizing revenue cycle management for ambulatory surgical centers and collecting appropriate and timely payments.

Challenges
Challenges in Ambulatory Surgical Center Billing
These centers use a combination of hospital and physician billing, which makes the ASC coding and billing process confusing. Most of them are billed using a combination of CPT and HCPCS Level II codes, while some insurers insist on using ICD-10 Codes. Also, there are certain other guidelines by Medicare such as filing claims through CMS 1500 and using modifiers to differentiate ASCs that makes the billing process more cumbersome. With only a few approved procedures in the facility, an ASC billing process involves many restrictions and guidelines.
The billers also need to be aware of coverages that is allowed for ASCs to avoid claim rejections. Use of specific diagnosis codes, modifiers, proper documentation that supports codes will ensure a better outcome for ASC medical billing.
