Maximize reimbursements for echocardiograms, cardiac catheterizations, EP studies, and nuclear cardiology with billing specialists who understand cardiology's high-complexity coding landscape — bundles, modifiers, and global periods included.
Cardiology is one of the highest-revenue — and highest-risk — specialties in medical billing. Echocardiograms, stress tests, cardiac catheterizations, and device management all come with bundling rules, global periods, and payer-specific coverage policies that demand expert-level coding. RCMAXIS cardiologists billing team holds CPC and CMSCS credentials and has deep experience across interventional, non-invasive, and electrophysiology cardiology practices.
Accurate coding for transthoracic echo (TTE), transesophageal echo (TEE), stress echo, and 3D echocardiography. We apply the correct technical/professional component splits and ensure all add-on codes for Doppler and color flow are captured.
Interventional cardiology billing requires precise selection of catheterization, angioplasty, stent, and atherectomy codes. Our team handles left heart, right heart, and combined procedures — capturing all selective coronary injections and add-on services without over- or under-coding.
EP procedures are among the most complex to code in all of cardiology — EP studies, ablations, device implants, and remote monitoring all have unique coding rules. We ensure correct coding for pacemaker implantation, ICD management, and EP mapping with full documentation review.
Myocardial perfusion imaging, PET scans, and ventriculography require careful attention to radiopharmaceutical billing, stress protocol documentation, and technical vs. professional component splits. RCMAXIS ensures full capture across all nuclear cardiology services.
Advanced imaging, device implants, and catheterization procedures routinely require prior authorizations that can take days to obtain. RCMAXIS submits, tracks, and escalates all prior auth requests — with peer-to-peer coordination when initial requests are denied — to eliminate care delays.
Cardiology denials — bundling disputes, medical necessity challenges for stress tests, and coverage limitations on advanced imaging — require detailed, specialty-specific appeals. Our team identifies the root cause of each denial and submits appeals with supporting clinical evidence to recover your revenue.
Our certified cardiology coders stay current with annual CPT updates, CMS transmittals, and payer-specific cardiac coverage policies.
General billing services lose cardiology revenue through misapplied bundles, missed add-on codes, and failed medical necessity documentation. RCMAXIS's cardiology billing team prevents revenue leaks at the source.
Our coders hold CPC and CMSCS (Cardiology) certifications. We handle interventional, non-invasive, and electrophysiology subspecialties — with dedicated coders who specialize in each area and understand the bundling, global period, and add-on code rules that make cardiology billing uniquely challenging.
Cardiology practices perform high volumes of procedures daily. RCMAXIS processes and submits claims within 24 hours of receiving documentation — keeping your AR cycle tight and your collections predictable, even during high-volume periods.
We track cardiology reimbursement rates across Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial payers — flagging underpayments, ensuring you're reimbursed at contracted rates, and identifying renegotiation opportunities when payer rates fall below market.
All cardiology billing data is protected under full HIPAA compliance — signed BAAs, encrypted transmission, role-based data access, and regular third-party security audits protect your practice and your patients.
