OT billing, PT billing and SLP billing each require a practiced hand to navigate the appropriate financial currents. The revenue cycle may appear simple in its offset, but these and other specialties can actually prove quite difficult to manage.
Whether OT billing, SLP billing or PT billing, it all starts with a patient visit. Subsequent visits are almost a certainty when it comes to physical therapy and occupational therapy. There might also be pain medication prescribed, diagnosis, suggested surgery, and more. All of these details must be accurately documented to ensure reimbursement from insurance providers and individual payers.
These ideas are not impossible, but they can be a challenge. Plus, it’s sometimes difficult to keep up with federal, state, and payer-specific documentation and procedure. Lack of HIPAA compliance especially can result in severe fees and penalties.
