1. Plastic Surgery Credentialing & Payer Enrollment Services

Prime Doc Billing provides credentialing and enrollment services for plastic surgeons performing reconstructive and medically necessary procedures, like scar revision, skin grafting, flap reconstruction, hand surgery, burn reconstruction, and complex wound closure, as well as eligible cosmetic procedures.
We ensure that the plastic surgery providers are enrolled with Medicare, Medicaid, commercial insurance agencies, and workers’ compensation networks while maintaining compliance with payer-specific credentialing requirements and reconstructive surgery enrollment guidelines.

2. Plastic Surgery Insurance Eligibility & Benefits Verification

We provide comprehensive insurance eligibility and benefits verification services for plastic surgery practices by confirming coverage, benefits and eligibility for reconstructive procedures like trauma, congenital anomalies, cancer-related reconstruction, and for functional surgeries like panniculectomy and blepharoplasty for visual impairment.
Our team verifies deductibles, copays, coinsurance, prior authorization requirements, while determining whether the plastic surgery services qualify as medically necessary or are excluded as elective cosmetic procedures.

3. Plastic Surgery Prior Authorization & Referral Management

Our plastic surgery RCM specialists obtain timely prior authorizations for reconstructive surgeries, panniculectomy, rhinoplasty for functional airway correction, tissue expansion, flap reconstruction, and other payer-regulated procedures. We also submit supporting clinical documentation, operative plans, imaging, and photographs if required for faster authorization approvals.

4. CPT, ICD-10 & HCPCS Medical Coding for Plastic Surgery

Our certified coders ensure accurate CPT, ICD-10, and HCPCS coding for plastic and reconstructive surgery billing services, while ensuring proper documentation for complex surgical procedures. We provide:
CPT coding for adjacent tissue transfer, flap procedures, skin grafts, wound repair, scar revision, implant-based reconstruction, and complex closure techniques.
