HOW TO DEAL WITH DENIALS IN DME 
BILLING?
This blog can guide you with certain points as a 
checklist to understand why denials happen in 
general and how to deal with it before it goes to 
rejection.
#1: Check eligibility criteria for patient and do 
proper verification
The staff responsible for sending the applications for claims of 
a DME billing company should primarily focus on whether the 
patient is insured or covered for DME services and what are the 
eligible DME services for them. This checking is crucial and 
sometimes, spellings of names, incorrectly checked information 
box, etc. can be the reasons for a claim denial.

#2: Coding and modifiers
An invalid or a missed modifier can lead to immediate rejection of 
claims. To avoid this, you should keep a standard chart that 
notifies on correct codes and modifiers to your medical coders 
and billers. Whenever there is an addition/update on the coders 
and modifiers ensure that it is immediately reflected on your 
chart and your employees are informed about it.

#3: Documentation
Documentation is the next crucial one, which could lead to 
denial of claims when it is not sufficient or incorrect. Proper 
documentation has to support the medical necessity of any DME 
product prescribed. This acts as a helping hand not only during 
claims but also in audits to prove the claim is correct.
Every order should contain an indication of diagnosis/reason for 
using the equipment/medication, correct date, and the DME 
provider’s signature. Missing out any one can lead to rejection of 
claims. Therefore medical billers and coders should be very 
careful with documentation.
