Osteopathic Billing Service

Managing osteopathic billing is not just about submitting claims—it’s about understanding the philosophy and practice of osteopathic medicine. Osteopathic physicians (DOs) provide holistic care that includes OMT (Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment) alongside traditional medical approaches. These procedures involve highly specific coding and documentation requirements that, if handled incorrectly, can lead to denials, underpayments, or audits.

Our services are crafted to ensure every OMT session is billed correctly, using the proper modifiers and codes that reflect the full scope of care provided. Whether you operate a single-provider clinic or a large osteopathic group, we scale our solutions to meet your needs.

    Why Our Osteopathic Billing Services Stand Out

    Our team understands the intricacies of Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT) billing, ensuring accurate CPT/ICD coding, correct modifier use (like 25 or 59), and payer-specific documentation. This reduces claim rejections and enhances compliance.

    💵 Faster Reimbursements

    We accelerate the revenue cycle by submitting clean claims daily and tracking payments closely—ensuring your practice gets paid faster with minimal delays from insurance providers.

    📉 Reduced Denials

    Through proactive error checking, real-time edits, and consistent payer rule monitoring, we minimize denials and follow up swiftly on any rejected or underpaid claims.

    📈 Revenue Growth

    From correct claim bundling to capturing all billable services, our process ensures you never leave money on the table—resulting in optimized revenue collection.

    🔒 Compliance-Focused

    We stay current with HIPAA requirements and ever-changing insurance policies, keeping your billing fully compliant and reducing audit risks.

    📋 Common Procedures & CPT Codes in Osteopathy

    CPT CodeDescription
    98925OMT, 1–2 body regions
    98926OMT, 3–4 body regions
    98927OMT, 5–6 body regions
    98928OMT, 7–8 body regions
    98929OMT, 9–10 body regions
    99213Office/outpatient visit, established patient
    99214Moderate complexity visit
    99441Telephone E/M services (5–10 mins)

    Understanding how to pair E/M visits with OMT using appropriate modifiers (like Modifier 25) is critical to ensure payment without duplication issues. We ensure every claim meets payer standards to avoid unnecessary denials.

    💡 The Unique Challenges of Osteopathic Billing

    🔄 Modifier Confusion

    When combining an office visit (E/M) with OMT, payers require Modifier 25 to justify both services. If omitted or misused, it leads to claim rejections. We handle this with precision.

    🕒 Time-Based Coding

    Some osteopathic procedures are time-based. Our coders accurately document session durations and adjust coding as per Medicare and private insurer policies.

    🩺 Manual Therapy Documentation

    Insurers often request detailed SOAP notes for OMT procedures. Our team ensures that documentation aligns with payer expectations and supports every billed service.

    📑 Insurance-Specific Guidelines

    Medicare, Medicaid, and private payers may differ in how they process osteopathic claims. We stay up to date with policy changes so you don’t have to.

    🧬 OMT Billing Is Not One-Size-Fits-All

    • Accurate pairing of OMT CPT codes (98925–98929) with E/M codes

    • Correct use of Modifier 25 to justify additional services

    • Validation of SOAP notes for compliance and audit defense

    We make sure your billing reflects the true complexity of osteopathic treatment, which results in fewer denials and more revenue retained.
