Coding, Billing & Collections

Lifeline Vascular Access employs a skilled team of billers, collectors and coding specialists to process claims on behalf of our managed access centers. Our billers and collectors are extensively trained in billing compliance and our team of EDI specialists enable electronic claims to reach the proper intermediary.

Our certified and licensed coders review every superbill for accuracy and completeness prior to submission to enable optimal reimbursement. Lifeline Vascular Access publishes an annual guide titled “Procedure Coding in Interventional Nephrology” for use by all Lifeline Vascular Access affiliated physicians to enable appropriate and compliant coding practices. This guide details codes and the proper usage of each code for each type of procedure. Also included in this guide are illustrative cases to demonstrate real world application.
