Radiology Medical Billing Services

Radiology revenue turns on the professional/technical split, prior authorization, and volume. Our certified coders specialize in radiology RCM so every read and every scan is billed correctly.

We handle radiology billing end to end — imaging centers, teleradiology, and hospital-based groups. Because radiology hinges on correct component billing (26/TC), prior authorization, and high claim volume, a specialty-trained team is what keeps reimbursement complete and denials low.

Radiology billing we handle

The 26/TC split. Billing a global code when you only performed the professional read (or vice versa) is a top radiology error. Correct 26/TC usage — matched to what you actually performed — is essential to full, compliant payment.

Why radiology practices lose revenue

The usual losses: wrong professional/technical component, missing prior authorization on advanced imaging, contrast/supplies uncoded, multiple-procedure reduction errors, and denial backlogs at volume. Radiology-trained coders and fast throughput close all of these.

What you get with PRMS

Component accuracy

26/TC or global billed to match exactly what you performed.

Auth up front

Advanced-imaging prior authorization to prevent medical-necessity denials.

Volume throughput

Same-day capture and scrubbing sized to imaging volume.

Radiology billing FAQs

What is the 26/TC split in radiology billing?

Radiology services have a professional component (the interpretation, modifier 26) and a technical component (the equipment/staff, modifier TC). Bill 26, TC, or global to match what you actually performed — mismatches cause denials or lost revenue.

Do you obtain prior authorization for imaging?

Yes. Advanced imaging (CT, MRI, nuclear) frequently requires prior authorization; we obtain it up front to prevent the medical-necessity denials common in radiology.

Can you handle high imaging volume?

Yes. Same-day charge capture, scrubbing, and fast denial follow-up are built for the high claim volume of imaging centers and teleradiology groups.

How soon will results show?

Most radiology groups see cleaner component billing and fewer auth denials within the first billing cycle.
