We apply best practices for Emergency Department Coding and Billing Services

At Synergy HCLS, we recognize Emergency Department Coding and Billing challenges, such as high out-of-pocket expenses and the prudent layperson rule. We work with your group to solve them as a business partner.

Our certified coders work with you to prevent problems caused by incorrect use of modifiers, as well as educate your in-house billing specialist on how to avoid them.

We also look for discharges not fully billed (DNFB) to identify unbilled procedures and improve reimbursements. Our services cost is often covered many folds by the additional reimbursements for services that Emergency Departments leave on the table. We do this by focusing on efficient, streamlined processes that decrease the amount of time needed to bill emergency department services correctly.

We have built our approach using modern technology, and the team focuses on providing data-driven solutions that help reduce denials and increase revenue.
