Radiology Billing Services

The unique aspects of billing for radiology services can be challenging for radiologists. It is a service that uses imaging techniques for both diagnosis and treatment of a disease. Radiology has multiple nuances due to its continually evolving advanced technology & treatment methods. Often there are new additions to the CPT codes used for billing radiology services practice, which demands constant attention.

Unlike other medical specialties, Radiology consists of two billing components -- the professional component & the technical component. When a radiologist uses a radiology apparatus, dyes & machines, they must bill it under technical elements. When the radiologist interprets the diagnostic results, they must bill the service under the professional part.
