Orthopedic ASC: Capturing $1.2M in Lost Revenue
Discover how we streamlined ASC billing for an orthopedic group, capturing $1.2M in previously lost revenue.
The Challenge
An Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC) specializing in orthopedics was failing to properly carve out implant costs and was mismanaging the 90-day global surgical period, leading to massive revenue leakage.
The Solution
We implemented strict ASC billing protocols, ensuring every implant invoice was properly attached to the claim. We also trained their front desk on global period scheduling to ensure unrelated visits were coded with the -24 modifier.
The Results
- $1.2M in annualized revenue recovered.
- Implant denial rate dropped to near zero.
- Achieved a 99% Clean Claim Rate.
