Charge Entry In Medical Billing

About our Charge Entry Services

Charge entry services are the process of assigning to the patient account an appropriate $ value as per the chosen medical codes and corresponding fee schedule. The reimbursements for the healthcare provider’s services are dependent on the charges entered for the medical services performed. Charge Entry services must be completed without any errors, as it may increase claim denials. Reduce revenue leakage through an adequate review of medical services provided and save millions of lost revenue. We ensure effective collaboration between the coding and the charge entry teams to ensure that the charges captured are accurate, all procedures are billed for, and the codes ascribed are compliant.
