Our Mission

To simplify billing for rheumatology practices—boosting revenue while ensuring complete compliance in every infusion, exam, and chronic care cycle.

Why Rheumatology Clinics Choose RCM firms

Rheumatology billing goes beyond basic codes. Infusion therapy timing, J-code accuracy, biologic drug cycles, and strict payer rules make this one of the most regulated specialties. Our team simplifies that complexity.

Infusion Drug Billing

We manage complex J-codes and units, making sure drugs like Remicade® or Orencia® are billed accurately with linked diagnosis codes.

Time-Based CPT Capture

For infusions, follow-ups, and CCM, we ensure proper capture of prolonged and cumulative time-based services.

Autoimmune ICD Mapping

ICD-10 accuracy for RA, gout, SLE, and inflammatory conditions to reduce rejections and ensure clinical correlation.

Seamless EHR Sync

We work with your EHR or PM system—no disruption to your practice flow, just faster payments and accurate charge capture.

Pricing

Custom-Tailored Pricing for Rheumatology Practices
