Common pitfalls
Where podiatry claims go wrong
These are the errors we look for first when reviewing a practice in this specialty. If any sound familiar, a billing review will tell you what they are costing.
- Routine care billed without the systemic condition that makes it a covered service.
- Debridement coded by site rather than by the area actually documented.
- Diabetic shoe claims filed before the certifying physician statement is obtained.
