OBGYN Medical Billing Services & Coding Complexities
Within changes in CPT codes and the implementation of ICD-10, many practices have faced OBGYN medical billing and coding difficulties. That has increased claims denials and slowed the practice revenue cycle. Additionally, there are several significant general changes that gynecologists should be aware of because staying updated with coding requirements enables physicians to record patient histories and accurately maintain records.
OB/GYN billing covers a host of procedures, including Obstetrics, Gynecology, Anesthesia, and Family Planning. Moreover, billing is challenging, even for some of the simpler procedures in these domains. Due to this, billing errors are a typical issue in the OB/GYN practice.

How to bill the deliveries?
It is very important to understand the nuances of OB/GYN billing. There are commonly two ways of billing deliveries.
1. Separately bill each appointment as an office visit and a code for delivery plus postpartum care.
2. Globally bill the full delivery episode.
