IS there any ASC 'S getting paid by private insurance companies on implants on porth a caths , lens, etc. Is there a list of payable implant, screws, etc. Here is my problem . Where I work at I'M consider a coder not a biller, so I dont see all the payments of how much we get reimbursed. . Here and there I'L ask but I do many other things to keep very busy . The billers tell me they get denied on just about every claim when I code an implant . They say its not in the contract. It seems a lack of communication on who is in charge of the contracts. So , is there any suggestions someone can give me, or a web site I can go to for I can go to my supervisor and explain this, Our ASC is missing out on some revenue, , I know Medicare does not pay for them, but reading these forums I see others have no problems getting reimbursed on imlants. I just got certifified, Now a CPC , trying to do my job, the right way . THANKS AGAIN , TRENT
