Coding
Our coding services include:
Determining HCPCS coding strategy
New HCPCS code application process
If we determine that a new code is warranted, we work with you to complete the HCPCS code application with compelling arguments that will maximize the likelihood of a new code being given. This includes working with the appropriate clinical experts if needed to support the application. We take you through the entire HCPCS coding cycle:
determining coding strategy
determining the clinical evidence and data strategy to support a successful coding application, as the outcome of coding requests often depends on the quality of the clinical evidence provided
creating and submitting a new HCPCS code application
alerting you when the preliminary coding decisions are posted on the CMS website
planning and implementing a strategy for your presentation at HCPCS public meetings, which may include creating the presentation and attending the meeting
determining whether to request to meet separately with CMS staff
alerting you when the final coding decisions are released by CMS
HCPCS coding verification process
If a new code is not required and an existing code is more appropriate for your product, we work with you to prepare and submit a code verification application to the Medicare Pricing Data Analysis and Coding Contractor (PDAC).
