DME Medical Billing and Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) Services to Maximize Your Revenue
Why Should You Outsource DME Medical Billing Services?
Durable medical equipment (DME) billing can be quite intricate due to the constantly evolving coding requirements and compliance regulations, along with numerous details that are unique to this area of medical practice. The experienced billing team at MedEx MBS streamlines the process to ensure quick reimbursements. Our proven system, combined with our dedicated focus on billing and the medical revenue cycle, allows us to provide an accurate and efficient solution for all your DME billing needs.
The Complexity of DME Billing Codes
DME billing is distinct from standard medical billing due to its unique coding challenges. Whether for a walking aid or a respiratory machine, each category of equipment requires specific HCPCS (Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System) codes. This complexity can often result in costly errors when managed internally. At MedEx MBS, we have a dedicated billing team that understands these specialized codes and how they relate to various payer rules, enabling us to minimize errors and speed up revenue flow.

DME Medical Billing Has Unique Challenges
DME billing services must handle a variety of complex requirements beyond the standard coding involved in all medical billing. From specialty modifiers to specific payer guidelines, each DME claim comes with its own unique set of requirements. MedEx MBS provides the expertise necessary to navigate these complexities, ensuring you receive the maximum possible reimbursement. Here are some of the unique challenges associated with DME billing.
DME Billing Has Different Rules for Rentals vs. Purchases
Some DME can be rented, while certain items must be purchased, and others may be available for purchase after a trial rental period. Insurance companies have differing policies regarding these categories, making compliance with all rules essential for claims approval. MedEx MBS expertly manages these rental and purchase requirements, alleviating your staff of the administrative burden.
Customized Equipment Requires Specific Documentation
Customized equipment, like specialized wheelchairs or orthotic devices, requires additional documentation for billing. This typically includes a detailed description and a factory invoice. Our team is skilled at gathering all the necessary paperwork to submit a complete claim, ensuring timely reimbursements without delays.
