Australian Surgical Billing
Orthopaedic Surgeon Medical Billing Australia
Billing administration for orthopaedic surgeons performing private hospital procedures, fracture management and inpatient reviews.
Discuss Your BillingWe bill in our software, not yours
DEVZ Solutions uses its own secure, Medicare- and ECLIPSE-compliant billing software to process Medicare and private health insurance claims. You securely send us your inpatient lists and the relevant patient, service and billing details using the transfer method agreed during onboarding.
We do not remotely log in to, or perform billing within, your practice's billing or patient-management software. Medicare and health fund payments go directly to your nominated bank account. DEVZ does not receive, hold or pool your medical income.
Complex procedure billing needs careful item selection
Orthopaedic surgery spans joint, hand and wrist, foot and ankle, shoulder and elbow, hip, knee, spinal and fracture-management services. MBS Online contains detailed procedural descriptors and restrictions, so the operative record and service details must support every item claimed.
From theatre list to claim follow-up
DEVZ can process billing information supplied after operating lists and inpatient rounds, check required administrative details, lodge eligible claims through the appropriate pathway, reconcile payments and investigate rejected claims.
Key billing checks
Claims should accurately identify the patient, provider, hospital/location, date of service, relevant referral where required and the procedure actually performed. Multiple-procedure rules, assistant services and item-specific restrictions may apply and should be checked against the current MBS.
Private hospital and ECLIPSE workflow
ECLIPSE supports in-patient medical claiming and Simplified Billing. For participating arrangements, accurate health fund, Medicare and episode information helps reduce avoidable claim delays.
