Why is orthopedic billing considered highly complex?

Orthopedic care often involves surgeries, imaging, durable medical equipment, and long-term treatment plans. Each component carries its own coding rules, authorization needs, and documentation standards. Orthopedic medical billing services specialize in handling surgical codes, global periods, post-operative billing, and multi-payer coordination. These experts manage claim submission, denial resolution, and reimbursement tracking with orthopedic-specific knowledge. Their involvement reduces revenue leakage, supports audit readiness, and improves financial transparency
