What Makes Home Health Billing So Challenging?

Home health billing is complex due to strict documentation, PDGM requirements, and varying payer rules—making accuracy and compliance critical to prevent denials and revenue delays.

 

PDGM Coding & Claims Preparation

We ensure accurate PDGM classification, coding, and claim preparation based on clinical data and OASIS assessments to maximize reimbursement and reduce payment errors.

OASIS Accuracy & Timely Submission

OASIS data directly impacts case-mix calculation and reimbursement. Errors, inconsistencies, or late submissions can lead to payment delays, rejections, or compliance risks.

LUPA Threshold Management

If visit utilization falls below payer-defined thresholds, agencies receive Low Utilization Payment Adjustments (LUPA), resulting in reduced reimbursement. Poor visit tracking increases revenue loss risk.

Strict Face-to-Face & Documentation Requirements

Medicare requires valid face-to-face encounters, physician orders, and detailed clinical documentation. Missing or incomplete records often lead to denials or audit exposure.

Eligibility, Authorization & Certification Cycles

Home health services require ongoing eligibility checks, prior authorizations (for some payers), and timely physician certifications and recertifications. Missed timelines can result in non-billable services.

Payer-Specific Billing & Compliance Variations

Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial insurers each have different billing rules, submission formats, and documentation standards, increasing administrative workload and denial risk.

Due to billing complexity, home health agencies partner with experts to improve cash flow and reduce denials.
