I just started working for a new company in February and recently started working on pathology here. We billed some pathology at my prior coding job but since we did several things wrong I'm not going to say we billed them 100% correctly. I have been told that the new company found information that pathology charges should be billed with the date the pathologist reviews the specimens vs the date of the procedure and specimen collection. They started doing this however have received complaints from patients because the path charges date differs from the procedure date and now are questioning which date to use, the date of the procedure and specimen collection, or the date the pathologist reviews and gives the results? Our pathology system needs to be fixed, badly, and I'm hoping to have this be my goal for the year so would like to know how others are billing path charges so I at least have a start. Which date are you using when you bill them, the procedure date or specimen review date from the pathologist?
Thank you!
Thank you!
