Frequently Asked Questions
Efficient immunology billing is crucial to providing high-quality allergy care. However, providers have their concerns regarding the process. Below we have answered some questions that they frequently ask. Whether you’re practicing allergy and immunology individually or affiliated with a hospital, these will effectively clear your confusion. Let’s have a look:
1) What documentation is essential to support medical necessity for immunotherapy?
Essential documentation includes the patient’s symptoms, confirmed sensitivities from testing, previous treatment history — including failed medication therapy — and the planned immunotherapy course. This record is what payers audit first, so it must be complete before treatment starts.
2) How do I handle billing for multiple allergen tests performed during the same encounter?
Modifier -59 is key: it indicates distinct procedures performed during the same encounter, allowing separately identifiable allergen tests to be billed individually. Without it, payers bundle the tests and pay for only one.
3) What's the billing time for an immunology practice?
Claims themselves should be filed within days of the visit — most payer timely-filing limits range from 90 days to one year. After submission, payer processing typically takes two to six weeks depending on the insurer, which is why clean, complete first submissions matter so much.
