Full-Cycle
Claim & A/R Support
Cardiac imaging claims carry their own billing rules.
Each imaging study, whether read in-office or performed at an outside facility, carries its own coding path, authorization rule, and payer requirement. Professional, technical, and global components are billed differently, and getting that distinction right from the start keeps claims moving instead of sitting in review.
Imaging We Bill For
Billing built around each imaging study
Documentation, coding, and payer rules shift from one cardiac imaging study to the next.
Stress Imaging
Billing for imaging paired with treadmill, pharmacologic, or exercise stress protocols.
Nuclear Cardiac Imaging
Support for perfusion studies, including pharmacologic components and radiotracer-related billing details.
Cardiac CT
Coding for coronary calcium scoring, CT angiography, and related structural studies.
Cardiac MRI
Claim support built around documentation depth and payer medical necessity rules.
How We Work
From intake to the last unpaid claim
Cardiac imaging claims move through several stages before a balance is settled. We stay involved at each one, from checking coverage before the study to following up on the accounts that payers are slow to close.
01
Intake & Coverage Check
Confirming patient and insurance details before an imaging claim is built.
02
Authorization Review
Checking payer rules for prior authorization on the specific study ordered.
03
Documentation Review
Matching the charge against what the physician actually documented and performed.
04
Diagnosis & Procedure Coding
Applying ICD-10-CM and CPT codes, with modifiers reviewed where they apply.
05
Claim Submission
Sending claims electronically and watching for rejections in the days after.
06
Denial Response
Working denied and underpaid claims, correcting and appealing where the facts support it.
07
Payment Posting & Follow-Up
Posting payments accurately and keeping unresolved balances on an active follow-up list.
Coding & Documentation
A claim should match what the physician actually ordered and recorded.
Cardiac imaging pays correctly when the diagnosis, procedure, and modifier on the claim line up with what the chart supports and what the payer's policy requires for that study.
What we check before a claim goes out
- ICD-10-CM diagnosis coding
- CPT procedure coding
- HCPCS codes when applicable
- Modifier accuracy
- Professional vs. technical component split
- Medical necessity documentation
- Payer-specific coverage policy
Claims & A/R
Claims and balances stay on our radar until they're closed
Cardiac imaging claims run into coding, authorization, and documentation issues more often than routine visits.
Claim & Denial Handling
Every claim gets a check before it leaves the building, catching coding and documentation gaps early.
After submission, we track claim status and step in when a payer is slow or unresponsive.
Denied claims are reviewed, corrected where possible, and appealed when the documentation backs the case.
- Pre-submission check
- Status tracking
- Denial review
- Claim correction
- Appeal writing
- Payer follow-up
Payment Posting & A/R
Payments are posted against the original charge, with contractual write-offs applied as the payer specifies.
Unpaid balances stay under follow-up rather than sitting untouched until they age past a payer's filing limit.
The goal is a claim list that reflects what's actually owed, not one padded with stalled accounts.
Michigan Practices
Billing that works around how your practice actually runs
Michigan cardiology and cardiovascular groups performing or ordering cardiac imaging can bring in billing support for the coding, submission, and follow-up work tied to those studies, without adding that load to clinical staff.
Whether imaging happens in-office, at a hospital-affiliated lab, or involves both professional and technical billing, the workflow is set up around how your practice already operates.

FAQ
Cardiac Imaging Billing Questions
What do cardiac imaging billing services cover?
Everything from documentation review and coding through claim submission, tracking, denial response, payment posting, and A/R follow-up.
Which imaging studies need specialized billing attention?
Echocardiography, stress imaging, nuclear cardiac studies, cardiac CT, and cardiac MRI each carry their own coding and documentation rules.
Is coding part of your billing service?
Yes. Diagnosis and procedure coding, along with modifier review, happen before a claim goes out.
What usually causes cardiac imaging claims to get denied?
Coding mistakes, missing authorization, eligibility gaps, medical necessity questions, and incomplete documentation are the common causes.
How does A/R follow-up help our practice?
It keeps unpaid claims and balances active instead of letting them sit unresolved past a payer's filing window.
