Medicalbillersandcoders.com Caters to Physical Therapy Payment Issues through Expert Billing Services
WILMINGTON, Delaware, October 17, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --
Physical therapy Services have often faced issues while billing for medical reimbursement due to their inherently complex nature as also because they cannot be billed for reimbursement unless medically deemed necessary, making physicians wary of undertaking certain physiotherapy services. Moreover, healthcare providers' intention to stringently scrutinize the patients' eligibility for medical reimbursement does not fully translate into action because of their preoccupation with patient care and other core services.

The changing face of Physical therapy reimbursement
The recent changes introduced in the Medicare fee schedule for Physical therapy services payment include the multiple procedure payment reduction which will have the effect of lowering the reimbursement amount by $2.48 for a half hour session. Healthcare industry experts also indicate a possible further scrutiny of the physician self-referral for Medicare and Medicaid patients which could also impact reimbursement rates for physician-owned physical therapy clinics. Once Medicare starts this decrease in provider reimbursement for Physical Therapy services, other insurance companies will follow suit. On top of that, the trend of decreasing third party payments with increasing co-pays is leading the Physical therapy billing into unfamiliar ground.
However, along with these potential reimbursement issues, the demand for Physical therapy services is likely to grow in the coming times as physiotherapists encourage preventive care as well as fitness and wellness strategies, and also emphasize the significance of pro-active intervention to minimize damage, both in terms of expenditure as well as body functions.
How can Medicalbillersandcoders.com support Physical therapy reimbursement?
