Frequently Asked Questions
Efficient dental billing is crucial to providing high-quality oral care. However, dentists have their concerns regarding the billing process. Below we have answered some questions that they frequently ask. Whether you’re practicing dentistry individually or affiliated with a hospital, these will effectively clear your confusion. Let’s have a look:
1) How do I navigate crossover claims in dental billing?
Crossover claims — dental procedures with medical necessity, like oral surgery or trauma care, billed to medical insurance — require linking medical and dental records, documenting medical necessity, and coding correctly across CDT and CPT. Coordination of benefits between the two plans must be verified first, so neither payer denies the claim as the other’s responsibility.
2) What role does modifier 22 play in dental cases?
Modifier 22 indicates increased procedural services — additional time, effort, or complexity beyond the usual for a procedure. Dental payers require detailed documentation justifying its use, because modifier 22 claims are audited frequently and unbundled without it.
3) What should I consider when billing for implant-related services?
Implant billing requires coding that distinguishes the implant procedure itself from related restorative work, with separate codes for each stage — placement, abutment, and crown. Complications and follow-up care must be documented distinctly, and complete session records are what keep implant claims from bundling denials.
