Audiology Medical Billing
Audiology billing is complicated for a few reasons. Billing structures and requirements for audiology are completely unique, so you need a dedicated team of specialists to handle your billing needs. Dealing with a wide variety of insurance types, including frequently billing Medicare, means you need insurance expertise as well. Falling short on either side means more audits and less revenue for your practice. Whether you’re performing hearing monitoring services or vestibular testing, we’ve got you covered.
Increase your revenue by 7.5% and decrease your time in A/R with medical billing services tailored to audiology providers like you. Our first-in-class medical billing services can help clinics of any size nationwide serve patients more profitably, so you can focus on your work and leave the rest to us.
Proper Coding for OAE Testing
Like many other audiological tests, otoacoustic emissions testing has many coding options depending on context. Among other variations, distortion product OAEs and 12-frequency cochlear mapping aren’t billed the same, even though they both involve otoacoustic emissions testing. Our team knowledgeably bills these and other tests accurately every time, despite how much variety is available.

When Comes to Audiology, Context Matters
More than most other medical fields, audiology procedures can be billed in different ways depending on context. For example, speech-in-noise tests can be billed using three separate CPT codes, depending on whether or not they’re bundled with other tests and diagnoses. Untrained billing teams can end up undercoding, but our experience ensures that every claim is consistent, no matter the context.
Get Paid Properly for Rehabilitation
Speech and aural rehabilitation describes a huge variety of procedure types for a wide range of conditions. Whether you’re working with stroke patients in a hospital setting or providing rehabilitative auditory training to patients with hearing loss, your coding needs will vary depending on location and bundling concerns. Although rehabilitation is complex, we bring our extensive knowledge to each and every claim.

Unique Modifiers Require Unique Knowledge
Many audiological services have to specify whether they are rendered to one ear, or both. While other medical disciplines use location codes to specify if services are performed on the left or right side, audiology billing requires special reduction modifiers. These are used most of the time, but not always — cochlear implants are a popular exception. Our team understands audiology billing at every level, from its general structure to each and every modifier you’ll ever need to use.
