Well the simple truth is that it is not easy. It is not remotely easy. It is down-right difficult, time consuming and confusing as payers have different rules as to how they want to receive the post op claim and what information they want to be on it. However, with your use of the opticXpress software system, we have taken a difficult task and made it just as simple as entering a regular visit for a patient.
A new tab has appeared on the opticXpress visit screen that will allow you to answer specific questions about a patient's cataract surgery. We will then use this information to correctly populate your claims with the correct information needed by the payer in order to virtually guarantee payment of post-op claims the first time, every time. Of course, it will still be up to you, the provider, to answer the questions correctly, but provided you do, you will soon begin seeing regular payment of post-op claims; usually within 30 days of the billing date.
This is an excellent opportunity for you to drum up new business if you are not already billing for post-op care. If you are billing for post-op care, gone should be the days of trying over and over again to get a post-op claim paid on-time, correctly.
Get out there! Advertise! See post-op patients. Begin billing for Medicare if you do not already and increase your revenue by using the rich features provided to you by opticXpress!!!
