What are Medical Billing Audits?
Medical billing and coding audits are necessary checkups to ensure a provider’s billing claims and coding documentation meet medical billing compliance. Certified billing auditors inspect patient charts and billing records to guarantee the use of correct codes that match conditions and care. Like routine physicals catching health problems early, audits diagnose issues in billing, allowing providers to correct course.
Audits are important as they reveal improper coding, incomplete documentation, missed charges, and noncompliance with reimbursement guidelines. This helps strengthen a provider’s revenue cycle by correcting errors proactively before they can lead to denied claims or penalties for incorrect billing. Regular comprehensive audits are advantageous as they ensure proper coding, completeness of records, optimal reimbursement, compliance with payer policies, and overall financial health.

Our Coding Audit Service Promises Billing Compliance: Here’s How?
Auditing your coding accuracy
Assessing coding accuracy is a principal objective of our medical coding audit company. We thoroughly investigate medical charts to ensure codes mirror the diagnosis, completed procedures, and complexity level. Proper coding is vital for correct reimbursement and adherence to guidelines. Our audits identify any upcoding or undercoding issues and recommend remedial actions. With our assistance, doctors can have confidence their coding satisfies standards and captures the total value due.
Improving your charge capture accuracy
Another essential element we examine is charge capture. We validate that all services rendered and supplies used are captured in the billing at the appropriate rates. Missed charges lead to lost revenue. Our auditors diligently compare the documentation in the medical record to the itemized billing statement. We identify any missed charges and recommend improvements to charge capture processes. Our goal is to maximize your reimbursement by closing gaps where legitimate charges are overlooked.
Auditing your billing documentation for compliance
Thorough documentation review is also part of our billing audit process. We assess whether the medical record provides clear, consistent documentation that supports the coded claims. Complete, accurate documentation is required to justify charges and pass payer scrutiny. Our team flags any documentation issues like vagueness, inconsistency, missing signatures/credentials, or lack of medical necessity. We provide guidance to strengthen documentation practices for better claim defense and audit survival.
Performing audits of provider-payor contracts
Some other areas we examine are proper application of insurance payor contracts and fee schedules as well as accuracy of data entered into the billing system. Invalid fee schedules and data entry errors can sabotage reimbursement. We verify compliance with payer contracts and recommend process improvements to enhance billing system accuracy. Our comprehensive audits cover all key facets to maximize claim quality and revenue integrity.
