Gastroenterology Billing

Screening vs. diagnostic colonoscopy billing, and endoscopy bundling, handled correctly.

Overview

Gastroenterology billing has one especially high-stakes distinction: a screening colonoscopy that becomes diagnostic mid-procedure (a polyp is found and removed) has to be billed differently than a purely preventive screening, and getting it wrong either creates an unexpected patient bill or an avoidable denial. AspireMedX applies that distinction correctly on every procedure claim.

Where claims usually go wrong

Billing a converted screening-to-diagnostic colonoscopy as a pure screening is one of the most common - and most consequential - errors in GI billing, since it can leave the patient with an unexpected bill. We flag procedure notes for that conversion before the claim is coded.
