Overview

Neurology Billing Services for Accurate Claims & Faster Payments

Neurology practices face some of the highest denial rates in medicine due to complex diagnostic procedure coding, bundling restrictions on EEG, EMG/NCV, and evoked potential studies, combined with payer-specific rules for infusions, neurostimulator procedures, and in-hospital consultations. Precise coding and documentation at every encounter is essential to protecting your revenue.

EEG, EMG/NCV & Evoked Potential Coding

We apply study-count-based EMG codes, correct EEG component modifiers (TC/26/global), and modality-specific evoked potential CPTs cross-referenced against the clinical report before every submission to prevent undercoding and underpayment.

Neurology E&M & Cognitive Assessment Billing

Our coders apply 2023 MDM-based E&M guidelines to neurology office visits and capture separately billable cognitive assessments (CPT 99483, 96132) that most practices miss, recovering significant revenue per encounter.

Infusion & Injection Therapy

From Botox prior authorization to MS infusion drug J-codes and unit-count verification, we manage the full billing lifecycle for injection and infusion therapies, ensuring no treatment goes uncompensated due to PA gaps or drug billing errors.

Sleep Medicine & Neurological Disorder Coding

We bill polysomnography, MSLT, and sleep-related neurological studies with correct channel-count differentiation and professional vs. facility component splits, capturing every billable element of your sleep neurology service line.

Coding

Urology CPT Coding Complexities & Claim Denial Triggers

From modifier stacking on EMG studies to distinguishing routine vs. prolonged EEG billing, our certified coders handle the intricate coding nuances that determine whether your claims get paid or denied.

Complexity checklist
  • EMG/NCV coding based on the number of nerves and studies performed.
  • EEG coding distinguishing between routine, prolonged, and video-monitored studies.
