Billing for SNFs and nursing homes is significantly more complex than standard outpatient medical billing. It involves navigating Medicare’s Prospective Payment System (PPS), MDS assessments, consolidated billing, and strict timelines for filing claims. At Horizon Healthcare Solutions, we specialize in these requirements, ensuring your facility gets paid accurately and on time.
Our team collaborates with your clinical and administrative staff to ensure correct data collection, timely documentation, and error-free claim submissions. Whether it’s a long-term care resident under Medicare Part A or outpatient therapy under Part B, we handle the full revenue cycle with precision.
We also stay compliant with HIPAA and CMS guidelines while using leading long-term care EHR and billing systems. Horizon provides detailed AR tracking, denial management, and reimbursement forecasting to maintain healthy financial outcomes.
Common Challenges in Nursing Home / SNF Billing
01
Complex Medicare Regulations
Medicare SNF billing involves PPS rules, timely MDS coordination, and frequent updates to payment models like PDPM.
02
Split Billing Confusion
Facilities often struggle with separating services under Part A and Part B correctly, leading to improper payments or denials.
03
Late or Incomplete Documentation
Missing MDS assessments, therapy notes, or admission/discharge summaries can result in delayed or rejected claims.
04
Consolidated Billing Mismanagement
Failure to include all required services in the SNF’s bill or billing for excluded services can lead to compliance issues.
05
Frequent Changes in Payer Mix
Residents often shift between Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurance, creating billing inconsistencies and aging AR.
06
High Denial Rates for Ancillary Services
Diagnostics, labs, and therapy often get denied due to lack of proper authorization or supporting clinical documentation.
