Cardiologists often lose a significant portion of their earnings daily due to billing errors. This is on top of the decline in health care fees, which have fallen by 2% year over year in cardiology. This expensive combination leads to an overall decrease in the profitability of cardiac studies.

Complications Associated with Cardiology Billing Services
Difficulties start with planning and scheduling
A medical bill for a cardiac process begins at the scheduling stage when insurance coverage and payer requirements must be verified. Even details such as whether the admission was inpatient, outpatient, or emergency department must be correctly coded, or the application will be refused.
Complex procedures and treatments involve complex coding
Modifiers are an essential part of coding. These additional subcategories of numerical codes are required to give the details needed to be reimbursed for all services delivered. While inexperienced coders can look up the general principle for a procedure, they often do not know how many levels of modifiers they need to include or all the numerically-coded details that need to be added. Payers are trending towards more bundling of costs into single codes, which can simplify billing—but coders must recognize any variance from the standard bundled items and know-how to itemize to avoid over-and under-coding.
High dollar claims lead to huge losses
In family medicine practice, hundreds of patients can be seen every day, which leads to a vast number of low-cost requirements. Still, in cardiology, examinations and treatments are more in-depth and more laborious, so fewer patients are examined every day. If a doctor routinely examines 10-15 people a day, a loss of income due to one unpaid claim can result in a loss of up to 10% of daily revenue.
