Billing Challenges We Solve Every Day

The exact failure points that drain orthopedic revenue — handled by coders who know them cold.

Global Surgical Period Tracking

Major orthopedic procedures carry 90-day globals that bundle routine follow-up. We track every global and apply modifier 24 for unrelated E/M and modifier 79 for unrelated procedures during the period, so legitimate post-op visits and staged work bill cleanly.

Fracture Care Coding

Fracture treatment splits into closed care with casting versus surgical fixation, each with distinct codes and global periods. We code the treatment actually rendered — not the diagnosis alone — and capture supplies and application correctly.

DME Billing & Documentation

Braces, supports and other durable medical equipment require precise HCPCS coding and supplier documentation to survive payer review. We assemble the documentation trail so dispensed equipment is reimbursed, not denied or recouped.

Joint Injection Coding

Joint and therapeutic injections pair the procedure code with the correct drug J-code units and, where used, imaging-guidance codes. We bill each component to the right specificity so injections are fully and compliantly reimbursed.

FAQ

Orthopedics Billing Questions

Do you track surgical global periods and fracture care?

Yes. We track every global period and apply modifiers 24 and 79 so unrelated visits and procedures bill correctly. For fractures, we code the treatment actually rendered — closed care with casting or surgical fixation — and capture the associated supplies and application.

Can you bill DME such as braces and supports?

Yes. We code durable medical equipment with the correct HCPCS codes and assemble the supplier documentation payers require, so dispensed bracing and supports are reimbursed rather than denied or recouped.

Do you code injections with imaging guidance?

We code joint and therapeutic injections with the correct procedure code, drug J-code units and, where performed, imaging-guidance codes — billing each component to the right specificity for full, compliant reimbursement.

Will you work inside our existing EHR and PM system?

Yes. We integrate with your current EHR and practice-management platform as an extension of your team — there is no system migration required.
