Orthopedic Billing Services
Accurate Billing for Complex Musculoskeletal Care
We specialize in providing tailored billing solutions for orthopedic practices, where accuracy, compliance, and speed directly impact revenue. Our expert team understands the unique coding, documentation, and modifier challenges in orthopedics — from fracture care and joint replacements to physical therapy and imaging. Whether you’re a solo orthopedic surgeon or part of a large specialty group, we offer end-to-end support to streamline your revenue cycle.
Challenges in Orthopedic Medical Billing
Orthopedic billing is multifaceted, often involving:
Surgical modifiers (e.g., -RT, -LT, -59, -76, -78)
Global periods for surgical services
Bundled vs. unbundled procedures
Extensive use of imaging and durable medical equipment (DME)
Physical and occupational therapy billing
Medical necessity documentation
Mistakes in any of these areas can delay payment or trigger audits. Billingbird ensures clean claims and maximum reimbursement, every time.
