Evaluations: Assessments coded to the correct complexity level.
Treatments: Time-based units billed accurately to the work performed.
Reauthorization: Authorizations tracked before they expire and sessions get denied.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you handle billing for occupational therapy when PT and OT are provided to the same patient?

Yes. We manage OT and PT claim coordination for shared patients, applying the correct discipline modifiers and ensuring claims are submitted without overlap or duplicate billing flags.

Can you work with our existing OT documentation or practice management software?

Yes. We work with most major occupational therapy documentation and practice management platforms and can integrate with your current workflow without requiring a system change.

How do you handle the Medicare OT therapy threshold and KX modifier compliance?

We track each Medicare patient's OT expenditure against the current threshold separately from PT and SLP spending, and apply the KX modifier on all OT claims that exceed it with treatment documentation reviewed to support medical necessity.

Do you handle functional limitation reporting for Medicare occupational therapy claims?

Yes. We manage functional limitation reporting within the required reporting periods and ensure the correct severity and goal codes are included on all applicable Medicare OT claims.

What happens if an OT claim is denied because an ADL code was billed as a timed service?

We identify the coding error, correct the code to reflect its untimed status, remove duplicate units, and resubmit the claim within our standard turnaround window. Recurring ADL coding issues are corrected at the charge entry level.
