    Billing and Coding Audits

    MMHCS provides both Billing and Coding Audits based on your practice’s needs.

    Billing Audit:

    During our Billing Audits we review the entire life cycle of the claim in the billing system based on the appropriate rules and regulations. The analysis will determine all levels of audit eligibility, charges captured, provider, location, submission, and adjudication of the claim. All types of visits will be captured including billable, non-billable, and additional enabling services that are being tracked in the billing system.

    The billing Audit can be geared to focus on a specific time range as well as other criteria such as insurance based on the needs of the clinic.

    We also offer Billing analysis options for Aging, Payment Posting and Denials, and more.

    Coding Audit:

    The Coding audit can also vary by subject and scope of work. Typically, one if not all of the following three areas are included in the Coding Audit Scope.

    • Evaluation and Management Coding Audit
    • CPT and HCPCS Audit
    • ICD-10 Diagnostic Coding Audit

    We assess the provider’s chart documentation to prove medical necessity and how this supports the level of services rendered and their linkage to the diagnosis.

    Based on the audit findings we offer additional services to help your clinic with the identified gaps and areas of improvement. These services can include items such as implantation and Project Management to Provider and Staff Training.
