  1. 2018 witnessed several changes in the healthcare industry. From focus on artificial intelligence and automation in medical billing to patients becoming the biggest payers and outsourced billing, there were several changes that providers embraced last year. CMS continues to make necessary changes for improving the lives of providers who are struggling to strike a work and life balance. In July this year, the proposed initiative for 2019 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule was announced by the CMS.

Several coding changes took place in 2019: From 1st January 2019, CPT (Current Procedural Terminology) codes came into effect. 72 codes were deleted, 49 were revised and 164 new codes were added. There were ICD-10 CM codes that were effective from October 2018 to September 2019 with several additions, deletion and revisions.

  3. Need for effective billing system on the rise It has been predicted that the rate of hospital visits in the years to come will cross more than 6 billion a year. This is a clear indication that the proportion of patient data will increase. If this complex data is not converted into simple terms for billers, practitioners and insurance companies, then revenue generation will become a challenge. Considering the rise in complexities of codes, it is important to ensure that the right ones are being used or else insurance companies will refuse to pay. It is expected that the medical billing outsourcing market will reach $16.9 billion by 2021. There will be a constant rise in providers who will choose to outsource billing to a third party due to changes taking place in healthcare regulations and compliance concerns.
