What Is a Medical Billing Audit?


A medical billing audit is a detailed review of your current billing, coding, and collections process. It’s designed to identify the gaps that affect your bottom line especially issues that may be missed by your current billing company or in-house staff.


As part of our revenue cycle management services, we examine:


  • Claim denials and rejection patterns

  • CPT/ICD-10 code usage and accuracy

  • Documentation and EHR alignment

  • Delayed credentialing or payer enrollment issues

  • Collections workflows and A/R aging



Why Audits Are Critical for Private Medical Practices


Here’s what a professional medical billing audit can do for your practice:


  • Recover lost revenue due to underbilling, coding errors, or unpaid claims

  • Identify costly errors before insurance payers or CMS audit your practice

  • Boost collections and cash flow by resolving inefficiencies

  • Strengthen compliance and reduce future takebacks or denials

  • Benchmark your billing performance to ensure you’re on track


If you’ve ever wondered whether your current billing company is doing their job or if you’re unsure why your revenue seems off a billing audit is the first place to start.
