Neurology Billing & Coding Services
Neurology is a branch of medicine that deals with the disorders, diagnosis, and treatment of the nervous system. It covers all diseases affecting the central and peripheral nervous systems.
Neurologists and Neurosurgeons specialize in treating diseases of the nervous system either through non-surgical or surgical methods, respectively. They reflect an immense sense of knowledge and eye for detail as they cover more than one area of neurology such as pain management, neuromuscular, sleep medicine, stroke and epilepsy. There is also significant overlap with behavioral and mental health as the two disciplines interlink greatly.
Neurology billing and coding is as intricate as the specialty itself. It is almost like a subspecialty of Evaluation & Management. Medical Coders face the daunting tasks of applying the right code from over a hundred codes available for coding neurology and neuromuscular tests. In addition, neurology billing & coding requires a strong knowledge of the place of service rules as neurologists see patients in multiple areas such as hospitals, offices, and care centers. In neurology RCM, failing to audit the smallest error can lead to a large loss of money for the practice.
Entrusting your neurology billing & coding to experts like us enables you to focus your resources on patient care while taking care of your financial stability and growth. At MBW RCM, we aim to increase revenue, decrease denials while improving and automating your entire revenue cycle.
Medical Billing & Coding Services Expertise in Neurology Billing & Coding
Applying best practices for Neurology
Our team of billers and coders is trained exclusively in neurology billing & coding and its nuances. We understand the dire need for precision while billing & coding for neurology. In addition, we perform prior authorizations, eligibility verification and reduce days in AR as per MGMA standards. We are experts in reducing instances of underpayment and denials. Our team ensures that all treatment procedures are coded for from lab reports and physician notes, resulting in maximum reimbursements.
Our expertise in neurology billing and coding includes but is not constrained to:
Vascular
Interventional
Epilepsy; neuromuscular; neuro re-habilitation
Behavioral
Sleep medicine; pain management
Neuro-immunology
Clinical neurophysiology or movement disorders
Neurosurgery
Neurology billing translates complex diagnostics and procedures—such as EEGs, EMGs, and sleep studies—into standardized medical codes (CPT, ICD-10, HCPCS) for reimbursement. It ensures neurologists are paid accurately and promptly.
The complexity of services, frequent changes in payer rules, need for precise documentation, and time-based procedures make neurology billing prone to denials if not handled with expertise.
Common CPT codes include:
95910–95913 (nerve conduction studies)
95816–95822 (EEG procedures)
95860–95870 (EMG studies)
99204–99215 (E/M visits)
MBW RCM ensures accurate coding, use of appropriate modifiers, timely claim submission, and thorough denial prevention. We also audit documentation to identify billing gaps and ensure compliance with payer policies.
Outsourcing gives neurologists access to certified coders, fewer denials, faster reimbursements, improved compliance, and more time to focus on patient care. MBW RCM streamlines the entire revenue cycle.
