Frequently Asked Questions
Efficient neurology billing is crucial to providing high-quality neuro care. However, neurologists have their concerns regarding the billing process. Below we have answered some questions that they frequently ask. Whether you’re practicing neurology individually or affiliated with a hospital, these will effectively clear your confusion. Let’s have a look:
1) How do I bill for a comprehensive neurological assessment?
Comprehensive neurological assessment billing requires documentation of the patient’s condition, examination, and treatment history. After that, the appropriate CPT codes are applied — for neuropsychological evaluation, codes 96132 and 96133 — supported by documentation that establishes medical necessity.
2) How can I optimize my neurology practice revenue cycle?
Optimization comes from three disciplines: streamlined coding, fast claim submission, and persistent follow-ups on unpaid claims. MarkLab’s neurology billing professionals handle all three — and monitor your KPIs with regular reports, implementing adjustments that keep cash flow regulated.
3) What are the common reasons behind neurology claim rejections?
The most common causes are incorrect patient information, missing medical-necessity authorization, and improper codes or modifiers. Each is preventable — through eligibility verification, prior authorization, and specialty-specific coding discipline before submission.
