Overview

Full-Cycle OB/GYN Billing Services From Antepartum to Postpartum Care

OB/GYN billing is uniquely challenging, combining preventive gynecological care with the complex, time-intensive global episodes of obstetrical care. Our service is designed to manage the full spectrum of your practice, from annual well-woman exams and in-office procedures to antepartum care, delivery, and postpartum follow-up. We ensure accurate coding for all services, proper handling of global obstetrical packages, and maximized reimbursement for both medical and surgical gynecology.

Global OB Package Management

End-to-end tracking of antepartum, delivery, and postpartum care under the global obstetrical package, ensuring no billable component is missed or incorrectly split-billed.

Delivery & Surgical Coding

Precise CPT coding for vaginal deliveries (59400), cesarean sections (59510), VBAC, operative obstetrics, and all complication-related procedures billed to maximum allowable reimbursement.

Gynecological Procedure Billing

Accurate coding for hysterectomies, colposcopies, LEEP procedures, D&C, and high-volume in-office procedures like IUD insertions and endometrial biopsies with correct modifier usage.

High-Risk OB & Ultrasound Billing

Specialized billing for high-risk obstetrical care, antenatal surveillance, and ultrasound interpretations (76805, 76810, 76817) with payer-specific LCD compliance reviews.

Challenges

OB/GYN Billing Challenges & Revenue Cycle Solutions

OB/GYN billing spans two distinct specialties with entirely different coding frameworks. These are the most common revenue leakage points our team eliminates for OB/GYN practices.

  • Managing the global obstetrical package, which includes antepartum, delivery, and postpartum care.
  • Accurately coding for vaginal deliveries, C-sections, and the numerous complications that can arise.
  • Distinguishing between covered gynecologic procedures and non-covered services.
  • Billing for a high volume of in-office procedures (colposcopy, LEEP, IUD insertions).
  • Ensuring correct coding for high-risk obstetrical care and ultrasound interpretations.
Our solutions

Features

How We Keep Your OB/GYN Claims Accurate & Paid

Our OB/GYN billing workflow is purpose-built for the dual complexity of obstetrics and gynecology, ensuring every claim — from routine well-woman exams to complex deliveries — passes payer edits the first time.

Global OB Package Tracking

Comprehensive management of global OB packages (59400, 59510, 59610, 59618), tracking all antepartum visits, delivery, and postpartum care under a single episode to prevent split-billing errors.

Delivery & Operative Obstetrics Coding

Precise coding for vaginal deliveries, C-sections, VBAC, forceps/vacuum deliveries, and operative obstetrics, with correct complication coding using O-code ICD-10 diagnoses.

Gynecological Surgery & In-Office Procedure Billing

Accurate coding for hysterectomies, colposcopies, LEEP, D&C, and all in-office procedures including IUD insertions, endometrial biopsies, and vulvar biopsies with correct modifier application.

Family Planning & Contraceptive Billing

Billing for implantable contraceptives, IUD insertions, and family planning counseling services with correct HCPCS and CPT codes, including proper use of Z30 diagnosis codes.

Ultrasound & Diagnostic Imaging Coding

Expert coding for obstetric ultrasounds (76805, 76810, 76817, 76816) distinguishing between standard, detailed, and high-risk anatomical surveys, and managing professional vs. technical component billing.

Coding

OB/GYN Coding Complexities & Claim Denial Triggers

From global package bundling rules to delivery complication coding, these are the areas that define OB/GYN billing accuracy and directly determine whether your claims get paid.

Complexity checklist
  • Global OB coding using the appropriate code based on the type of delivery (59400, 59510, 59610, 59618).
  • Separate billing for antepartum visits only (59425, 59426) when not providing delivery.
  • Coding for complications of pregnancy (O20-O29) and their impact on delivery codes.
  • Correct use of modifiers for bilateral procedures and multiple surgeries.
Denial triggers

Incorrect coding of global OB packages (e.g., billing for antepartum visits separately).

Missing modifiers for bilateral or multiple procedures.

Unbundling of surgical procedures.

Lack of medical necessity for diagnostic tests like ultrasound.

Coordination of benefits errors for maternity care.
