Is your practice writing off visits that fall inside a 90-day global period? Some of them are separately payable, but only with the right modifier: 57 for the decision for surgery, 24 for an unrelated postoperative visit, 78 for an unplanned return to the OR. Our orthopedic guide sorts out which is which.

How orthopedic billing services handle global periods, modifiers 24, 25, 57, 58, 78, 79, fracture care, casting supplies, and in-office imaging.

Are your routine foot care claims getting denied? Medicare covers it only when a qualifying systemic condition is documented, and the Q7, Q8, and Q9 modifiers have to match the class findings in that day's note. A prior visit's findings will not carry the claim. Our podiatry guide breaks it down.

How podiatry billing services handle the routine foot care exclusion, Q7/Q8/Q9 class findings, nail debridement vs. trimming, and orthotics.

What happens to your patient balances after day 60? In a lot of practices, nothing, until someone decides to clean up the aging report and ships them to an agency. An in-house recovery cycle with a real owner and a real phone call brings back far more per dollar. Our 2026 breakdown shows the math.

When to keep patient collections in-house vs send to external agency in 2026 — recovery economics, net cents per dollar, and the real tradeoffs.

Is your team putting JW and JZ on the right claims? Neither modifier belongs on a multi-dose vial, and JZ has been required on zero-waste single-dose claims since July 2023. Miss one and you get rejections, miss the other and you forfeit payment. Our oncology guide sorts it out.

How oncology billing services handle infusion hierarchy, chemotherapy administration codes, JW/JZ drug wastage, and prior authorization.

Are you reworking the same denial over and over? A denial reason that shows up three hundred times in a year is not three hundred incidents, it is one unfixed process. That is exactly what a billing audit is built to surface. Our guide explains what a real audit examines.

What medical billing audit services review, what auditors typically find, how often to audit, and how to act on the findings without disrupting cash flow.

Is 55700 still sitting on your urology superbill? That code was deleted when the prostate biopsy family was rebuilt for 2026, and the replacements are organized by approach and guidance. Our urology guide walks through the new set and the add-on code that gets missed most.

How urology billing services should handle cystoscopy, stone, prostate and urodynamics coding — plus 2026 code changes and prior authorization traps.

Is your cardiology billing still running on last year's PCI codes? Six branch add-on codes were retired at the start of 2026, and two new ones replaced them for complex stenting and chronic total occlusions. Our guide covers what changed and where the denials tend to show up.

How cardiology billing services should handle echo, stress, cath, PCI and device coding — plus the 2026 code changes and denial traps to watch.

How much of your patient balances actually clear in the first cycle? The practices that do best ask for autopay at time of service and capture text-to-pay consent at intake, instead of leaning on paper statements. Our 2026 breakdown compares the channels.

Statement design, autopay, and text-to-pay decide first-cycle pay rates in 2026. What's worth adopting — and what's marketing fluff.

08/18/2026

Are your Medicare annual wellness visits actually getting billed? G0438 and G0439 are among the most under-captured codes in small practices, usually because nobody owns the recall list. We just expanded our small-practice billing guide with a section on E/M levels and wellness visit capture. Take a look.

Learn how small medical practices handle billing, compare in-house and outsourced workflows, understand pricing, and know when to get expert support.

08/17/2026

Is your team reworking the same denials every month? Fixing one claim is not the same as fixing the process that produced it. Our denial prevention guide covers where the errors actually start, which metrics to track weekly, and how to build a review rhythm your staff can sustain.

Schedule a consultation to reduce claim denials medical practice teams face with practical steps for cleaner claims, stronger documentation, and follow-up.
