Important Note:
- If the rep provides the correct POS then update it and send the corrected to insurance. Medicare does not accept the corrected claim, so always send fresh claims to Medicare.
- If the rep does not provide the correct POS then assign the claim to the coding team to review and provide the correct POS.
- Once a response is received from the coding team then work accordingly. When the response received as coding is correct then call insurance and try to reprocess the claim if the rep disagrees then ask for appeal details and send an appeal to insurance.
Hi, just to let you know Above Scenario is wrong hospital claims do not have place of service, they revenue code like 027X: Medical/Surgical Supplies and Devices, 051X: Operating Room Services and so on. Please correct it if I am wrong do let me know
ReplyDeleteBasically for above scenario you did not get what it was meant and actually it was for physical billing and when it comes to Hospital billing it does require POS as well, I hope i made it clear to you.
