Orthopedic Surgery Medical Billing & Credentialing Services

Precision-Driven Revenue Cycle Management for Orthopedic Practices

At Oakview Medical Billing Solutions, we provide comprehensive orthopedic billing and credentialing support that simplifies the reimbursement process, accelerates cash flow, and ensures compliance with payer and regulatory guidelines.

Whether you're a solo orthopedic surgeon, a group practice, or a surgical center, our team of certified billers and credentialing experts are equipped to handle the unique financial and operational demands of your specialty.

Why Orthopedic Billing Requires Specialized Expertise

Orthopedic billing is not simply about submitting claims; it’s about mastering coding complexity, modifiers, medical necessity, and payer policies. Without dedicated expertise, practices are at high risk for denials, underpayments, and compliance audits.

Key orthopedic billing challenges we solve include:

  • Multiple procedure billing and modifier use (e.g., -59, -RT, -LT, -51)

  • Bundling and unbundling issues per NCCI edits

  • Delayed DME reimbursement and documentation errors

  • Pre-authorization and medical necessity documentation for surgeries

  • Workers’ compensation and personal injury billing

  • ASC (Ambulatory Surgery Center) billing for orthopedic cases

  • High-value procedures subject to medical reviews
