SPECIALTY BILLING EXCELLENCE

RCM Built for the Specialties Where Generic Billing Fails

Generic billing companies handle your claims the same way they handle every other practice. Our certified coders live inside your specialty, understanding the CPT nuances, payer behaviors, and documentation requirements that determine whether you get paid.

Generic RCM Breaks Down Exactly Where Your Revenue Is Most at Risk

A generalist billing company can submit a claim. What they can’t do is recognize that your orthopedic surgeon performed a bilateral procedure requiring payer-specific modifier selection, or that the add-on CPT code your pain management provider just performed wasn’t covered under the original prior authorization. That gap — between claim submission and claim accuracy — is where revenue disappears.

Specialty billing isn’t a niche skill. It’s a different discipline entirely.

Orthopedics

SURGICAL & MUSCULOSKELETAL PRACTICES

Specialty RCM centered on critical bone alignment
modifiers, surgical margins, and strict pre-authorization
parameters.

KEY BILLING CHALLENGES:

• Global period modifier errors (-24, -25, -57, -78)

• Bilateral procedure coding (-50 vs -RT/-LT by payer)

• Prior authorization failures on expanded surgical scope

Pain Management

INTERVENTIONAL & CHRONIC PAIN PRACTICES

Specialty RCM built to reconcile drug screening, sedation, fluoroscopy guidance, and complex block codes clearly.

KEY BILLING CHALLENGES:

• Add-on CPT codes billed without updated prior authorization

• Bundling denials for procedure combinations in same session

• Fluoroscopy guidance coding disputes (77002/77003)

Anesthesia

ANESTHESIOLOGISTS & CRNA GROUPS

Direct crosswalk integrations, dedicated supervision modifiers, and exact minute-to-unit calculations.

KEY BILLING CHALLENGES:

• CRNA modifier mismatch with documented supervision model (AA, QX, QY, QZ) • Time-unit calculation errors (15 min = 1 unit) • ASA crosswalk inaccuracies causing systematic underpayment

Comprehensive Therapy

PT / OT / ST SPECIALTY RCM

Compliant Medicare 8-minute calculations, cap-tracking modifiers, and accurate RPM/RTM billing capabilities.

KEY BILLING CHALLENGES:

• 8-minute rule compliance for Medicare timed services
• KX modifier omissions triggering therapy-cap denials
• RTM billing alongside traditional therapy — most billers can’t do both

Chiropractic & Rehabilitation

CHIROPRACTIC & REHAB HUB

Active spinal codes management, maintenance thresholds audits, and ABN forms validation workflows.

KEY BILLING CHALLENGES:

• Maintenance vs. active-care billing distinctions
• Medicare frequency limits and AT-workflow management
• Spinal manipulation code selection and modifier accuracy

CLIENT VALIDATION

From the Specialties We Serve

Verified clinical administrators describe standard performance differences post-transition.

★★★★★

“Before Clientele, global period billing disputes were eating into our surgical revenue every quarter. Their coders flagged the modifier issues within the first audit and the difference showed up in our collections within 60 days.”

REVENUE CYCLE MANAGER — MULTI-SPECIALTY ORTHOPEDIC CLINIC

MICHIGAN

★★★★★

“The add-on CPT authorization problem was costing us more than we realized. Clientele embedded an auth-tracking step that caught three unbilled procedures in the first week alone.”

BILLING DIRECTOR — MULTI-LOCATION PAIN MANAGEMENT PRACTICE

FLORIDA

★★★★★

“Managing RTM billing alongside our traditional therapy codes was something our previous biller refused to touch. Clientele handles both without any gap in compliance documentation.”
