Patient Encounter Codes
Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) employ specific codes to effectively categorize various patient encounters. These unique codes are critical as they help in identifying new patients, established patients, and annual wellness visits. This system streamlines operations and ensures a high standard of care for every visit.
Dental Codes
FQHCs don’t just offer medical care; they also provide comprehensive dental services. Mastery of CDT (Current Dental Terminology) codes is essential to ensure patients receive the best possible care and coverage for their dental needs.
Sliding Fee Scale
FQHCs present a compelling advantage by providing sliding fee scales tailored to each patient’s financial situation. This approach not only makes healthcare more accessible but also demonstrates a commitment to patient-centered care, despite adding complexity to the revenue cycle process.
Medicare Billing
It’s imperative to process FQHC Medicare billing claims through Medicare Part A using the institutional claim form (UB-04). This approach offers clear benefits over non-FQHC organizations that submit claims under Medicare Part B on a HCFA form. By adopting this method, you’ll ensure smooth processing and enhance the efficiency of managing your claims.
Understand Compliance Requirements
It’s crucial for FQHCs to stay compliant with HRSA and CMS guidelines. By adhering to these standards, including the annual PPS base payment rates and UDS reporting, FQHCs can ensure they continue to receive necessary funding and maintain high-quality care.
Telehealth & Behavioral Health Requirements
It’s crucial for FQHCs to grasp the complexities of billing and coding when it comes to mental health services provided via telehealth by their practitioners. Understanding these nuances is essential for maximizing efficiency and ensuring proper reimbursement.
Tailored Solutions for Diverse Needs
FQHCs serve a vital role in providing healthcare to populations who are economically disadvantaged, geographically isolated, or marginalized for various reasons. These centers face unique billing challenges due to the limited scope of services they provide and the varied eligibility and payment structures defined by state Medicaid agencies. Our services are designed to address these specific challenges, ensuring that your billing processes are both efficient and compliant.
