5 COMMON MISTAKES PHYSICIANS COMMIT WITH THE DERMATOLOGY BILLING
 
 
You must have an accurate and efficient medical billing experience for your 
dermatology practice to receive maximum service reimbursement. While every 
medical specialty requires precise billing procedures to receive treatment 
payments, dermatology practices must go above and beyond to ensure accuracy. 
Paying special attention to compliance guidelines and the specialty’s unique use of 
modifiers is part of proper medical billing for dermatology practices. In fact, 
Dermatology practices face distinct medical billing and coding challenges due to 
the specialty. As dermatology requires both medical and surgical aspects, 
Physicians commit with the dermatology medical billing can be complicated and 
necessitates a thorough understanding of dermatology CPT codes, modifier usage, 
and other factors.

COMMON MISTAKES PHYSICIANS COMMIT 
WITH DERMATOLOGY BILLING:
1. Insufficient Claim Information
A single empty or unchecked box on a claim can result in a denial. Even the most 
essential fields, such as gender, date of birth, and time of the accident or medical 
emergency, are frequently left blank.
2. Insurance Verification Failure
The most common reason for claim denials is insurance issues. An overreliance 
typically causes failure to verify on routine. If a patient visits the office frequently, 
the staff may assume that their insurance provider or coverage plan hasn’t 
changed and may fail to check eligibility.

3. Failure to Meet Filing Deadlines
Some payers provide two-year “timely filing” windows for individual medical claims, 
while others only offer 30 days. You’re out of luck if you don’t file your claim on 
time. Denials for timely filing are among the most difficult to appeal.
5. Typing and Miscoding Errors
Here are a few of the most common ones to stay away from if at all possible:
• Incorrect insurance, patient, or provider information (i.e., name, address, date of 
birth, policy numbers, etc.).
• Entering ICD-10-CM codes with an unusually large or small number of digits.
• In a given claim, no codes are entered.
• Incorrect CPT codes were submitted.
