Next, the mechanical diagnosis converts the written diagnosis from your documentation and applies proper coding for billing purposes to any third-party payers. Throughout this process, complications may arise based on medical necessity requirements from third-party payers or possible errors or limitations during the conversion of the written (English) diagnoses into code. Keep in mind, the codes must match the diagnosis in your documentation and record the diagnosis hierarchy appropriately for submission.
Rebecca and all the staff at KMC have been invaluable. I won't go into great detail but above what I signed up for, training staff to bill in house, KMC helped guide us through a major billing mess (don't use Medicfusion billing FYI). I cannot recommend Rebecca and KMC enough, they are THE BEST!!
