Accurate Billing for Cosmetic & Reconstructive Surgery
Plastic surgery practices handle a mix of cosmetic, reconstructive, and medical procedures. Billing for these services is highly complex, especially when distinguishing between elective cosmetic treatments (often not covered by insurance) and medically necessary surgeries (covered but heavily regulated). At Apple Med Billing, we specialize in navigating these challenges to secure the highest possible reimbursement for your practice.
Why Plastic Surgery Billing is Challenging
Plastic surgery billing requires precise documentation and coding to ensure services are billed correctly. Common challenges include:
Cosmetic vs. Reconstructive Procedures:
Insurance rarely covers cosmetic procedures, but reconstructive surgeries require detailed documentation to prove medical necessity.
Complex Surgical Coding:
Procedures like skin grafts, flap reconstructions, and breast surgeries involve multiple CPT codes.
Bundled Services:
Multiple services performed during a single surgery must be coded with proper modifiers.
Pre-Authorization Requirements:
Many payers require prior approval for reconstructive procedures.
Without expert billing, practices risk claim rejections, delays, and underpayments.
