Family practice billing also requires managing different insurance types, such as Medicare, Medicaid, and private payers, each with specific fee schedules, documentation requirements, and reimbursement policies. Additionally, preventive services often fall under special billing rules, as they are covered under the Affordable Care Act, which requires accurate coding to avoid denials. Managing denials, processing appeals, and ensuring compliance with billing regulations are crucial for maintaining cash flow and the financial health of the practice, while ensuring that patients continue to receive high-quality care.
