Hematology Billing Service
Hematology is a highly specialized medical field dealing with complex conditions like anemia, leukemia, lymphoma, clotting disorders, and bone marrow diseases. These cases often involve extensive lab tests, biopsies, infusion services, and long-term treatment protocols. Billing for hematology requires absolute precision in coding, medical necessity documentation, and timely follow-up on claims to ensure full reimbursement.
With our expert hematology billing services, practices can eliminate billing errors, reduce denials, and experience a consistent increase in revenue.
Why Hematology Billing Is Challenging
The billing process in hematology is complicated by the diversity of services, frequent use of high-cost biologics, and coordination with multiple specialists. In-house teams often struggle to keep up with payer-specific requirements, modifier usage, and code changes—resulting in underbilling or outright claim rejections.
Key Challenges:
Billing for high-cost injectables (e.g., Rituximab, Erythropoietin)
Accurate documentation of lab diagnostics and results
Coordinating chemotherapy and infusion billing with oncology
Prior authorization and payer limitations on repeat testing
Hematology-Specific CPT and ICD-10 Codes
Below is a list of commonly used codes in hematology practices. Proper usage is essential for fast, accurate reimbursements:
| Code | Description |
|---|---|
| 38220 | Bone marrow aspiration |
| 36415 | Collection of venous blood by venipuncture |
| J0881 | Injection, darbepoetin alfa (for anemia) |
| D64.9 | Anemia, unspecified |
| C91.10 | Chronic lymphocytic leukemia, without remission |
| Z51.11 | Encounter for antineoplastic chemotherapy |
| D68.9 | Coagulation defect, unspecified |
Using the correct CPT and ICD-10 codes along with appropriate modifiers increases claim approval rates and reduces delays.
