Reclaim Your Infusion Billing Revenue: 3 Resolutions For 2025

With the year coming to an end, infusion pharmacies across the country need to look back on their administrative processes to identify the areas of improvement.

The infusion pharmacy market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 8.6% by 2032, that brings numerous revenue opportunities for the providers.

However, without the knowledge of different nuances of infusion billing and coding services you cannot take care of your revenue cycle.

Consequences?

Of course, high claim denials, revenue loss, disruption of the care process and increased risks of audits, fines and penalties.

So, let’s resolve the infusion billing issues once and for all by taking and accomplishing these resolutions this year!

Resolutions that Can Revive Your Infusion Billing Revenue

Resolution#1: Eliminate bad habits.

In the toughest time even, your best staff can pick up on bad habits of erroneous documentation, lack of follow-up on accounts receivable buckets and so on.

Also, missing information, lack of prior authorization and inaccurate coding within the system increase difficulties in infusion billing procedures.

With the frequent changes within the payers’ claim submission guidelines, it is not possible to stay always updated. As a result, implementation of outdated guidelines within the billing process leads to claim denials and revenue loss.

Resolution#2: It’s the story of 1% improvements

Doing it 1% better each day will help one be 37 percent better in a year. It will be best to avoid having your team push through grand identification of goals because sometimes it is best to have small realistic goals in a day.

For instance, if your Denial Rate is about 18% while your target is 5%, work on one small problem at a time. Take the main payer denial list and solve the first one, the second one and so on.

Success builds on small cumulative processes that depend on attention to detail and diligence every single day.

Resolution#3: Investigate patients’ insurance coverage and benefits.

It is time to check benefits for all the active patients before dispensing the medicines again. Having the ability to do this electronically is actually useful. The patient portal could provide you with the information required to ensure that a patient still engages with the benefits occasionally.

Benefits should be reviewed at least once a month, according to best practice. It is less burdensome when doing small batches of patient checks towards the end of the year than to do 100 patient checks manually.

Well, we all know, taking a resolution and accomplishing it are two completely different scenarios. When you are already burdened with increasing patient volume and complicated clinical responsibilities, handling the business side of your infusion pharmacy is like walking on eggshells.
