Pediatrics

Pediatric billing is multifaceted. Why? It’s because pediatricians work with patients from infancy to young adulthood and provide a diverse and extensive range of services to deal with various conditions, treatments, procedures, and preventative healthcare. This is why pediatric billing and pediatric coding necessitate a unique set of skills to ensure proper reimbursement. In fact, with the evolving regulatory landscape, it is more difficult than ever to perform pediatric medical billing services in-house. With the need to improve patient engagement and strengthen the bottom line, providers turn to outsourcing to implement effective pediatric revenue cycle management strategies.

As a pediatric billing company, 3Gen Consulting has the specialized knowledge and resources required to streamline the pediatric revenue cycle management process, reduce providers’ administrative burden which provides them with more time to focus on their patients and ultimately improve financial outcomes.

Pediatric revenue cycle management begins with patient registration and continues till the provider receives appropriate reimbursement for the services rendered. Every step is important, which means that unfortunately there are also many chances for pediatric billing and pediatric coding errors to occur during the process. These errors can result in claim rejections or denials and can also increase a provider’s compliance risk. Based on our experience, we have identified the below reasons as some of the most common pediatric billing and coding errors. It’s important to note that these errors are in fact preventable and can result in significant reimbursement improvement if the pediatric medical billing services process is corrected to avoid denials.
