Laboratory medical billing services
1. Laboratory services may be classified in two types: Clinical and Diagnostic.
Clinical laboratory services involve examination of materials from the human body to prevent or diagnose a certain
disease or condition. These tests are related to biological, chemical, biophysical or pathological aspects of the patient.
Diagnostic laboratory services, on the other hand, are quite different to simple clinical tests. It involves surgical
pathology, hematology and blood banking services.
The main difference between the two is that diagnostic services require a physician or some other certified professional
to perform a test, where as for clinical services, only a pathologist is required.
2. Laboratory billing process is an interaction between a clinical laboratory and the insurance company. This entire
laboratory billing interaction is known as a billing cycle, which can take up a few days to several months to complete.

6. A laboratory billing system is a specialized solution
meant to improve the financial standing of labs. It
provides medical testing for patients and help the
staff work in a swift manner. This new and exciting
field of testing has quickly become a challenging
area for insurance reimbursement. Laboratory
billing starts with laboratory coding. After a lab
service has completed, the diagnosis and
procedure codes are assigned. These codes assist
an insurance company in determining coverage
and medical necessity of the services. The codes
used for laboratory billing are the International
Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related
Health Problems, usually called by the short-form
name International Classification of Diseases
(ICD), and the Current Procedural Terminology
(CPT) codes. The ICD is designed as a health care
classification system, providing a system of
diagnosis codes for classifying diseases, including
classification of a wide variety of signs, symptoms,
abnormal findings, complaints, social
circumstances, and external causes of injury or
disease.
7. By streamlining the administrative and personnel costs associated with handling the revenue billing and claims process,
we save additional money for our clients and offer the freedom and peace of mind to focus on their core services.
Many practices and hospitals prefer coding and billing on their own, either with a dedicated team or as part of a
hospital billing team. These operations can be effective as long as the investments in billing technologies are kept
current and the staff members are well trained. But we often see numerous problems which reduce effectiveness and
therefore cash flow. These problems can be: Staff turnover, Outdated or inflexible systems, Limited reporting
capabilities.
