Our team has been having trouble reaching Oklahoma Medicaid to obtain claim status and dispute denials? I’m being told when they reach out they aren’t able to reach a live representative. And when they go online to the provider portal they aren’t able to send an inquiry on denials.
Thanks

I need your help… I am working in a practice that have been doing the hospital billing the same way for the last couple of decades. They are very fortunate to have the same employee for almost 40 years. Now that I involved in the hospital billing I have been informed that they wait until the patient is discharged from the hospital to create the claim. I have never heard of such rule and I cannot find any documentation to prove it right or wrong either. From previous experience, this rule was not recommended. I have always created the claims on a daily basis if possible, but at the end of the month all visits were counted as part of the monthly financial report therefore all hospital claims were created and sent to the insurance companies by the last day of the month.
My questions is: How do you do it in your practice, your experience? What is your recommendation? Should we wait until the patient is discharge from the hospital to create and send the claim>
In advance, thank you for your help and the learning experience.

the Denial code was 16 saying claim lack service information.
Are they looking for the op report?
Appreciate the Education
I am looking for information or experience in a situation where Medicare is the 2ndary payer who over pays what they are billed as 2ndary and leaves a co-ins. Is this correctly adjudicated or can they not leave a pt resp greater than what the primary left for Medicare initially.
Thank you,
Jessie
On 8/3 the patient came back to the office with a chief complaint of right ankle pain due to the fact that she over did it walking at the beach. Patient was only 35 days post op at the 1st visit. Patient came in 4 times for this same problem. Blue Cross denied it, including on appeal. It is a different issue at hand but is the 24 modifier applicable in this case?
Also, on the appeal, we requested in bold letters that a Board Certified Podiatrist review the case. Blue Shield had a Gastroenterologist/Internal Medicine specialist do the review! Any thoughts on how to handle this. In case it is helpful, the Podiatrist is in NJ.
